Questions
HS code 030193: common questions
What is HS code 030193?
HS code 030193 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Live fish : Other live fish : Carp (Cyprinus spp., Carassius spp., Ctenopharyngodon idellus, Hypophthalmichthys spp., Cirrhinus spp., Mylopharyngodon piceus, Catla catla, Labeo spp., Osteochilus hasselti, Leptobarbus hoeveni, Megalobrama spp.)". The first two digits (03) are the chapter — Fish and crustaceans, molluscs and other aquatic invertebrates — and digits 3-4 (0301) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 030193?
Common products classified under 030193 include carp, live carp, common carp, grass carp, silver carp, bighead carp and similar items matching carp. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 030193?
Duty is set by the destination country, not by the 6-digit HS code alone. Start from the official tariff of your market — USITC HTS (US), TARIC / Access2Markets (EU), GOV.UK Trade Tariff (UK), CBSA (Canada), ABF (Australia) or Singapore Customs — and look up the full national code with China as the country of origin.
Is HS code 030193 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (030193) are the same worldwide under the WCO Harmonized System. Beyond that, each country extends the code (HTS in the US, TARIC in the EU, etc.) and sets its own duty and tax rates.
Can I trust the HS code a 1688 supplier gives me?
Treat a supplier-provided code as a clue, not a final classification. It can be incomplete, China-export-specific, or mismatched to your destination's rules. Verify against the official tariff and your product's actual material and use.
