The Harmonized System (HS) code is an international method of classifying products for trading purposes. This classification is used by customs officials around the world to determine the duties, taxes and regulations that apply to products entering their country.
Tariffs are a duty (or tax) levied on goods transported from one customs area to another. They can raise the cost of your products for buyers in foreign countries.
The basic HS code system uses a 6-digit number to identify basic commodities. Each country is allowed to add additional digits for statistical purposes.

The Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System (HS) of tariff nomenclature is an internationally standardized system of names and numbers for classifying traded products developed and maintained by the World Customs Organization (WCO) (formerly the Customs Co-operation Council), an independent intergovernmental organization with over 170 member countries based in Brussels, Belgium.
 

Usage in Russia:

Russia uses a 10-digit system for both exports and imports.
HS Codes can be mentioned as "Kod TN VED" in Russian Language.
To determine the classification of your goods under the HS Code, the following sources will be useful:

Russian Federation has an Unified National Classification System for the products and services. Shortly, it is called OKP.

In all Certifications in the GOST System, OKP is used as the main classificatory number, for some extends, more important than HS Codes.

National Classification of products (hereinafter - OKP) is part of the unified classification and coding of technical, economic and social information (ECKK), the Russian Federation.
OKP was developed and put into operation in Russia instead of All-union classification of industrial and agricultural products.
OKP is designed to ensure the accuracy, comparability, and automated processing of product information in several areas such as standardization, statistics, economics and others.
 

OKP is a systematic set of codes and names of groups of products built on a hierarchical classification system. Classifier is used to solve problems cataloging of products, including the development of directories and organize them in the production of important technical and economic grounds; product certification in accordance with groups of similar products, built on the basis of groupings of OKP; for statistical analysis of production, sale and use of products at the macroeconomic regional and sectoral levels, for the structuring of industrial and economic information on the types of products manufactured by enterprises to conduct marketing research and supply and marketing operations.
 

Each position OKP contains a six-digit code, a unique control number and the name of the grouping of products which are recorded under the following form:

-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------
Code        | KC |                  Name
-------------------------------------------------- -----------------------
For example:
57 1193       1          Sands of natural stone, other

 

In the OKP System; it is provided a five-hierarchical classification decimal system of digital coding.
At each stage of the classification division performed on the most significant economic and technical classifications.
In the first stage of classification are the classes of products (XX, 000), the second - Division (XX X000), the third - a group of (XX XX00), the fourth - a subgroup (XX XXX0) and the fifth - the types of products (XX XXXX).
 

Codes 2 - 5-digit product groups are supplemented by zeros up to 6 digits and recorded with an interval between the second and third places.
Classification of products in OKP can be completed in the third, fourth or fifth stage of the classification division.
When recording selected types of classification groups use the short form with the substitution of lexical elements of graphics, thus:
- Lowered the initial part of the full name, instead of which put a dash when it repeats the previous item;
- Preceding the name or the part corresponding to the lowering of the acronym, separated by a slash.
