Can I write 5608 on a commercial invoice?
Customs usually need at least the 6-digit subheading (for example 5608.11), 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.
