HTS Code Finder for US Import Duty Estimates
Find likely HTS codes for US imports, then estimate duty, Section 301 exposure, MPF, HMF, and landed cost.
The HTS code controls the duty estimate
An HTS code finder helps importers move from a product description to the tariff schedule line that controls the duty rate. The best workflow does not stop at the code. It should also estimate country-of-origin surcharges, MPF, HMF, and total landed cost.
Use TariffCheck when you need classification plus cost planning.
How to use an HTS code finder
- Describe the product in plain English.
- Include material, function, and whether it is a finished product or component.
- Review likely HTS candidates.
- Check whether the HTS line has normal duty, special rates, or additional tariffs.
- Confirm the final classification before filing.
Why a 10-digit code matters
Two products can share the same broad chapter but have different duty rates at the subheading level. For China-origin goods, the exact line can also affect Section 301 exposure.
Is an HTS finder enough for compliance?
No. It is a research and estimation aid. For binding treatment, request a ruling or work with a licensed customs broker.
