Additional Code - Types

When a country has codes filed in addition to the HS numbers, these codes are referred to as “additional codes”. Commonly, the source may label these additional codes as "Statistical Key", "Statistical", etc., which broadly describes their function. In Content, there are a variety of codes that get added as additional codes, as detailed below:
  1. Statistical Code declared along with HS Number: These codes are filed in the same field as the tariff HS number. This extends the tariff code for example, from 8 digits to 9. These additional codes usually further define the product.
  2. Statistical Key declared in a separate field: In some cases, Statistical Keys are declared in a separate field on the declaration form. These keys serve to further define the products for more precise product classification and data collection.
