Common questions
- What is HTS code 2827?
- HTS heading 2827 covers chlorides, chloride oxides and chloride hydroxides; bromides and bromide oxides; iodides and iodide oxides. It sits in Chapter 28 (inorganic chemicals) of the US Harmonized Tariff Schedule and contains 24 tariff lines.
- What is the duty rate for HTS 2827?
- General duty rates from 1.5% to 5.5%, with 5 duty-free lines. The general rate applies to most-favoured-nation trading partners; goods from countries with a free trade agreement may qualify for a reduced or duty-free special rate.
- How many digits does a full HTS code have?
- US import entries require the full 10-digit HTS code. Heading 2827 is the first four digits — the remaining six narrow it down to the specific product, which is what determines the duty rate you actually pay.
