United KingdomCustoms — Frequently Asked Questions
What happened to UK HS codes after Brexit?
Before Brexit, the UK used the EU's Combined Nomenclature (CN). Since January 2021, the UK operates its own UK Global Trade Tariff. While still based on the WCO's 6-digit HS system, the UK tariff schedule has diverged from the EU's in some areas, particularly duty rates and preferences.
Where do I find UK import duty rates?
The UK Trade Tariff service at trade-tariff.service.gov.uk provides duty rates, VAT treatment, and import requirements for all UK commodity codes. Enter the 6-digit HS code found here to get the full 10-digit UK code and applicable duty rate.
Are UK and EU HS codes the same?
The first 6 digits are the same internationally. The UK and EU have diverged at the 8 and 10-digit level after Brexit. If you trade with both the UK and EU, verify the commodity code on both the UK Trade Tariff and the EU's TARIC database separately.
