HS Code 680800

HS code 680800 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Panels, boards, tiles, blocks and similar articles of vegetable fibre, of straw or of shavings, chips, particles, sawdust or other waste of wood, agglomerated with cement, plaster or other mineral binders". The first two digits (68) are the chapter — Articles of stone, plaster, cement, asbestos, mica or similar materials — and digits 3-4 (6808) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 680800 include wood wool cement board, fiber cement board, wood particle board, straw board, chipboard, woodcrete block and similar items matching panels. 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 (680800) 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.
