HS Code 960310

HS code 960310 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Brooms, brushes (including brushes constituting parts of machines, appliances or vehicles), handoperated mechanical floor sweepers, not motorised, mops and feather dusters; prepared knots and tufts for broom or brush making; paint pads and rollers; squeegees (other than roller squeegees) : Brooms and brushes, consisting of twigs or other vegetable materials bound together, with or without handles". The first two digits (96) are the chapter — Miscellaneous manufactured articles — and digits 3-4 (9603) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 960310 include broom, whisk broom, brush broom, besom, twig broom, corn broom and similar items matching brooms and brushes. 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 (960310) 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.
