Questions
HS code 060420: common questions
What is HS code 060420?
HS code 060420 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Foliage, branches and other parts of plants, without flowers or flower buds, and grasses, mosses and lichens, being goods of a kind suitable for bouquets or for ornamental purposes, fresh, dried, dyed, bleached, impregnated or otherwise prepared : Fresh". The first two digits (06) are the chapter — Live trees and other plants; bulbs, roots; cut flowers — and digits 3-4 (0604) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 060420?
Common products classified under 060420 include fresh foliage, greenery, eucalyptus branches, fern leaves, ornamental grasses, fresh moss and similar items matching fresh. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 060420?
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 060420 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (060420) 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.
