HS Code 320649

HS code 320649 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Other colouring matter; preparations as specified in note 3 to this chapter, other than those of heading 3203, 3204 or 3205; inorganic products of a kind used as luminophores, whether or not chemically defined : Other colouring matter and other preparations : Other". The first two digits (32) are the chapter — Tanning or dyeing extracts; dyes, pigments, paints, varnishes — and digits 3-4 (3206) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 320649 include inorganic pigments, mineral pigments, other inorganic colorants and similar items matching other colouring matter and other preparations. 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 (320649) 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.
