HS Code 680229

HS code 680229 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Worked monumental or building stone (except slate) and articles thereof, other than goods of heading 6801; mosaic cubes and the like, of natural stone (including slate), whether or not on a backing; artificially coloured granules, chippings and powder, of natural stone (including slate) : Other monumental or building stone and articles thereof, simply cut or sawn, with a flat or even surface : Other stone". The first two digits (68) are the chapter — Articles of stone, plaster, cement, asbestos, mica or similar materials — and digits 3-4 (6802) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 680229 include stone slab, stone tile, building stone, dimension stone, cut stone, flagstone and similar items matching other stone. 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 (680229) 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.
