Questions
HS code 902000: common questions
What is HS code 902000?
HS code 902000 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Other breathing appliances and gas masks, excluding protective masks having neither mechanical parts nor replaceable filters". The first two digits (90) are the chapter — Optical, photographic, measuring, medical or surgical instruments — and digits 3-4 (9020) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 902000?
Common products classified under 902000 include gas mask, respirator, breathing apparatus, SCBA, escape hood, supplied air respirator and similar items matching other breathing appliances and gas masks. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 902000?
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 902000 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (902000) 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.
