HS Code 300510

HS code 300510 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Wadding, gauze, bandages and similar articles (for example, dressings, adhesive plasters, poultices), impregnated or coated with pharmaceutical substances or put up in forms or packings for retail sale for medical, surgical, dental or veterinary purposes : Adhesive dressings and other articles having an adhesive layer". The first two digits (30) are the chapter — Pharmaceutical products — and digits 3-4 (3005) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 300510 include adhesive bandages, band-aids, plasters, wound dressings, medical tape and similar items matching adhesive dressings and other articles having an…. 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 (300510) 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.
