HS Code 640192

HS code 640192 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Waterproof footwear with outer soles and uppers of rubber or of plastics, the uppers of which are neither fixed to the sole nor assembled by stitching, riveting, nailing, screwing, plugging or similar processes : Other footwear : Covering the ankle but not covering the knee". The first two digits (64) are the chapter — Footwear, gaiters and the like; parts of such articles — and digits 3-4 (6401) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 640192 include ankle boots, rain boots, short wellies, rubber boots, waterproof boots and similar items matching covering the ankle but not covering the knee. 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 (640192) 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.
