Questions
HS code 050210: common questions
What is HS code 050210?
HS code 050210 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Pigs', hogs' or boars' bristles and hair; badger hair and other brush making hair; waste of such bristles or hair : Pigs', hogs' or boars' bristles and hair and waste thereof". The first two digits (05) are the chapter — Products of animal origin, not elsewhere specified — and digits 3-4 (0502) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 050210?
Common products classified under 050210 include pig bristles, hog bristles, boar bristles, brush hair and similar items matching pigs'. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 050210?
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 050210 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (050210) 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.
