About CustomsTariffs.com
CustomsTariffs.com is a free, open-access directory of customs duty rates and Harmonized System (HS) codes. We aggregate tariff data from official government customs authorities and international trade databases to help importers, exporters, customs brokers, and trade compliance professionals quickly find duty rates and import regulations.
Coverage
We currently cover 18 countries across the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia, and major global economies. Our database includes over 150,000 individual tariff line pages with duty rates in both English and Arabic.
Data Sources
Our tariff data comes from two primary sources:
- GCC Common External Tariff (CET) — Used for Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain. Data sourced from ZATCA (Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority) and the GCC customs authorities. This covers approximately 19,138 tariff lines per country based on the unified GCC tariff schedule.
- WITS / UNCTAD TRAINS — Used for Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Algeria, Lebanon, Pakistan, Nigeria, Bangladesh, Turkey, India, China, United States. Data sourced from the World Integrated Trade Solution (WITS) database, which provides Most-Favoured-Nation (MFN) applied tariff rates.
How the HS Code System Works
The Harmonized System (HS) is an international nomenclature developed by the World Customs Organization (WCO) for classifying traded products. It is used by more than 200 countries as the basis for customs tariffs and trade statistics. The system organizes products into 21 sections, 97 chapters, and thousands of headings and subheadings. Each product is assigned a unique numeric code (typically 6-12 digits) that determines its customs duty rate.
