Looking for US Schedule B Number or US Harmonized Tariff Code?

When exporting items US businesses use either a Schedule B Number or US Harmonized Tariff Code. Your business may search the US Census Department's site for a Schedule B Number. That site has a browse feature to view or download the entire Schedule B book for multiple years or you may use the online Schedule B Search Engine to determine the appropriate Schedule B Number classifying your export item. Similarly, businesses may use the online search tool to determine the US Harmonized Tariff Code . This tool is maintained by the US International Trade Commission. Your business may also download all or sections of the US Harmonized Tariff Schedule . Your business may check the Notice to Exporters explaining which US Harmonized Tariff Codes are not acceptable in place of Schedule B Numbers. Daniel H.
