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 4001?

4001 is the HS 2022 heading for Natural rubber, balata, gutta-percha, guayule, chicle and similar gums; in primary forms or in plates, sheets or strip. It is in chapter 40 (Rubber and articles thereof), section VII, and has 5 six-digit subheadings, from 4001.10 to 4001.30.

Can I write 4001 on a commercial invoice?

Customs usually need at least the 6-digit subheading (for example 4001.10), 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.
