# HS code finder — find the correct HS/HSN code for any product, any country

An HS code is the 6-digit international classification that decides your duty rate, your documentation and your buyer's taxes. Vametra AI searches the complete HS6 directory by product or commercial trade name, then applies your chosen exporting and importing country to show the duty, destination taxes and any export-support scheme for that lane. National tariffs extend HS6 to 8 or 10 digits, so confirm the full national code in the destination tariff schedule.

## How classification works

- The first 6 digits are harmonised worldwide (WCO Harmonized System).
- Countries add 2-4 more digits for their national tariff — India HSN 8-digit, US HTS 10-digit.
- Classification follows the goods, not the intended use or your invoice description.

## FAQ

### Is the HS code the same in every country?

The first 6 digits are. Beyond that, each country has its own national extension, so always confirm the 8 or 10-digit code in the destination tariff.

### Can I search by trade name?

Yes — commercial names like basmati rice, agarbatti or cotton t-shirt are mapped to the correct HS6 code.
