HS Code 320740

HS code 320740 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 : Glass frit and other glass, in the form of powder, granules or flakes". 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.

Common products classified under 320740 include glass frit, glass powder, glass enamel frit, glass granules and similar items matching glass frit and other glass. 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 (320740) 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.
