HS code 120710 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Other oil seeds and oleaginous fruits, whether or not broken : Palm nuts and kernels". The first two digits (12) are the chapter — Oil seeds and oleaginous fruits; miscellaneous grains, seeds and fruit — and digits 3-4 (1207) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 120710?

How do I find the import duty for HS code 120710?
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 120710 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (120710) 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.
