HS Code 262060

HS code 262060 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Slag, ash and residues (other than from the manufacture of iron or steel), containing metals, arsenic or their compounds : Containing arsenic, mercury, thallium or their mixtures, of a kind used for the extraction of arsenic or those metals or for the manufacture of their chemical compounds". The first two digits (26) are the chapter — Ores, slag and ash — and digits 3-4 (2620) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 262060 include arsenic slag, mercury slag, thallium slag, toxic metal residue and similar items matching containing arsenic. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.

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.

The first 6 digits (262060) 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.

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.
