Subheadings of 3913 (6 digits)

Pick the subheading that describes your product. A subheading marked “n.e.c.” (not elsewhere classified) or “other” covers only what the subheadings before it do not. Click a code to copy it.

The first 6 digits are the same in every country that uses HS 2022. Each country adds 2–4 more digits and sets the duty in its own tariff, and the section and chapter notes can include or exclude products, so check the destination’s official tariff before you put the code on the invoice.

Common questions

What is HS code 3913?

3913 is the HS 2022 heading for Natural polymers (e.g. alginic acid) and modified natural polymers (e.g. hardened proteins, chemical derivatives of natural rubber), n.e.c. or included, in primary forms. It is in chapter 39 (Plastics and articles thereof), section VII, and has 2 six-digit subheadings, from 3913.10 to 3913.90.

Can I write 3913 on a commercial invoice?

Customs usually need at least the 6-digit subheading (for example 3913.10), and the import declaration uses the destination country’s full code of 8 to 10 digits. Use the subheading that matches your product, and confirm the national digits with the buyer, the customs broker or the official tariff.
