Search a product description, narrow the likely headings, then confirm the final commodity code in the official tariff.
Use plain product descriptions rather than brand names. Final classification depends on material, use, packaging and the country tariff being used.
The finder’s features match plain product descriptions with common tariff headings, then take you to the official UK Trade Tariff for the final check. Search for what the product is, what it is made from and what it does—not only its brand name.
An HS heading is usually the first part of the classification. UK import and export declarations may require a longer commodity code, and the final digits can affect duty, licences, trade measures and VAT treatment.
Describe mixed or composite goods carefully. A cotton shirt, protective work shirt and knitted synthetic-fibre shirt may look similar in a catalogue but classify differently because material, construction and intended use all matter.
Material or composition, function, manufacturing method, packaging, intended user and technical specification can all change the correct heading.
Similar-looking products can sit under different codes. Check the tariff’s section notes, chapter notes, exclusions and supplementary measures.
For valuable, unusual or recurring imports, consider specialist advice or an Advance Tariff Ruling rather than relying on an informal description match. Keep the classification reasoning with your customs records.
