Common questions
What is HS code 6813?
6813 is the HS 2022 heading for Friction material and articles thereof (e.g. sheets, rolls, strips, segments, discs, washers, pads) not mounted; for brakes, clutches or the like, with a basis of asbestos, other mineral substances, or cellulose. It is in chapter 68 (Stone, plaster, cement, asbestos, mica or similar materials; articles thereof), section XIII, and has 3 six-digit subheadings, from 6813.20 to 6813.89.
Can I write 6813 on a commercial invoice?
Customs usually need at least the 6-digit subheading (for example 6813.20), 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.
