What is HTS Code 8 and 10?

While the first 6 digits of HS Code are the same globally, the next 2-4 digits are different for each country

Types of Rate of Duty

Column 1 - "General" Column 1 "general" is the General sub-column of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS). Countries whose goods qualify for these rates are considered countries with which the U.S. has "Normal Trade Relations"(NTR).

Column 1 - "Special" Many countries that qualify for column one rates may also qualify for preferential duty rates under a variety of special trade agreements as listed in the "Special" sub-column of Column 1.

Column 2 Countries not covered by NTR are commonly referred to as "Column Two" countries, meaning duty rates for products from these countries are listed in Column two of the HTS. Currently, the only countries with Column Two status are Cuba and North Korea.

Some of the symbols used to designate the various preference programs and trade agreements in the "Special" sub column can be found here.
