HARMONIZED TARIFF SCHEDULE (HTS) or HARMONIZED SYSTEM (HS) CODES and SETTLING CUSTOMS DUTIES
Reviewing the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) will aid in categorizing your product using a specific 10-digit code and identifying any associated tariffs. While the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States Annotated (HTSUS) is specific to the United States, most countries, including the United States, adhere to the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System (HS) established by the World Customs Organization (WCO). The HS employs 6-digit codes for product classification and may append an additional 1 to 3 digits to form 7 to 10-digit HTS codes, depending on the country.

Customs clearance timelines vary, typically ranging from 24 hours to several days based on the accuracy of your documentation. Failure to retrieve the shipment within 30 days may prompt customs officials to remove and auction off the containers once the grace period expires
