The European Union introduced a new tariff number requirement that went into effect on July 1, 2021.
The below table has the suggested HS/tariff code for the most popular items listed on Reverb. The characteristics of your particular item may mean a different code should be used, so you should always do your own research before adding a HS/tariff to your shipping label.
There are many free tools available online that can be used to search for the correct HS/tariff your items. Here are three websites for your reference:
- Understanding HS Codes - International Trade Administration
- Harmonized Tariff Schedule Search
- What is the Common Customs Tariff? - EU
If you have questions about the tariff numbers for your products, we recommend contacting a tax professional. It is the responsibility of the seller to research and provide the correct HS/tariff code on the shipping label before shipping.
Below, we've listed category-specific tariff codes to use for your Reverb shipments.
