Questions
HS code 030332: common questions
What is HS code 030332?
HS code 030332 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Fish, frozen, excluding fish fillets and other fish meat of heading 0304 : Flat fish (Pleuronectidae, Bothidae, Cynoglossidae, Soleidae, Scophthalmidae and Citharidae), excluding edible fish offal of subheadings 030391 to 030399 : Plaice (Pleuronectes platessa)". The first two digits (03) are the chapter — Fish and crustaceans, molluscs and other aquatic invertebrates — and digits 3-4 (0303) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 030332?
Common products classified under 030332 include plaice, Pleuronectes platessa, European plaice, common plaice and similar items matching plaice. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 030332?
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 030332 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (030332) 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.
