Questions
HS code 711100: common questions
What is HS code 711100?
HS code 711100 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Base metals, silver or gold, clad with platinum, not further worked than semimanufactured". The first two digits (71) are the chapter — Natural or cultured pearls, precious stones, precious metals; jewellery; coin — and digits 3-4 (7111) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 711100?
Common products classified under 711100 include platinum clad, platinum plated, platinum clad metal, gold clad with platinum, silver clad with platinum, base metal clad with platinum and similar items matching base metals. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 711100?
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 711100 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (711100) 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.
