Compare HS code 961900 across GCC countries

Each destination shows its own source label. Oman uses its national schedule; Qatar and UAE entries may cite their separately published references and unresolved exceptions. Other entries retain the historical GCC reference. National codes, duty notes, restrictions and tax treatment can differ; verify with the destination customs authority.

Data source: WITS/UNCTAD TRAINS (MFN 2022). Values are indicative HS6 MFN averages, not shipment-specific applied rates. Import permission and restrictions are not assessed. Historical reference rates exclude VAT, excise and other national measures. Separate national entries preserve the columns printed by their source; these are not a complete shipment assessment.
