Algeria Customs Tariff for HS Code 340242

Organic surface-active agents; non-ionic (other than soap), whether or not put up for retail sale

Algerian Customs — national tariff portal reference

17,345 official source entries are searchable. Checked 2026-09-23.

17,345 ten-digit codes from all 97 chapters listed by the public portal. Original French product hierarchies, printed taxes, fiscal advantages, units, formalities and document references are retained. This is a dated portal observation, not a consolidated legal edition or a total import charge. Fiscal advantages require eligibility review; blank official-journal or document fields are not proof of exemption. No preference is selected. Seven listed positions return empty tables (2848, 4108, 4109, 4110, 4111, 6908 and 8469); this is a portal limitation, not proof of exemption or a statement that no national subdivision exists.
