Rubber import customs clearance.

Natural rubber, synthetic rubber, compounds and rubber products sit across several HS headings in Chapter 40, and the duty changes a lot between them. We settle the classification before we file.

What we check

  • HS classification within Chapter 40 checked against your technical data sheet
  • Duty, any anti-dumping duty and FTA benefits worked out before arrival

Rubber: good questions.

What HS code is rubber under?

Rubber and rubber products are in Chapter 40. Natural rubber, synthetic rubber, compounded rubber and finished products each have different headings and duty rates. Send us the data sheet and we will confirm the code.

Can I claim lower duty on rubber under an FTA?

Often, if the goods originate in a partner country and the certificate of origin is in order. We check the claim before filing so it is not rejected at assessment.
