HTS Classification
Accurate tariff classification is the foundation of every successful import operation.
What We Do
Precise Tariff Classification for Your Goods
The Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) is a complex system of over 17,000 codes that determines the duty rate applied to every product entering the United States. An incorrect classification can result in overpayment of duties, costly penalties, shipment delays, or even seizure of goods by U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
At DM Customs Brokerage, our classification specialists have over 20 years of experience assigning accurate HTS codes. We analyze the composition, function, and end-use of your products to determine the most favorable — and legally defensible — classification.
