Questions
HS code 320710: common questions
What is HS code 320710?
HS code 320710 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Prepared pigments, prepared opacifiers and prepared colours, vitrifiable enamels and glazes, engobes (slips), liquid lustres and similar preparations, of a kind used in the ceramic, enamelling or glass industry; glass frit and other glass, in the form of powder, granules or flakes : Prepared pigments, prepared opacifiers, prepared colours and similar preparations". The first two digits (32) are the chapter — Tanning or dyeing extracts; dyes, pigments, paints, varnishes — and digits 3-4 (3207) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 320710?
Common products classified under 320710 include ceramic pigments, ceramic stains, glaze stains, overglaze colors and similar items matching prepared pigments. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 320710?
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 320710 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (320710) 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.
