Harmonized System Advanced: Mineral and chemical products – Sections V to VI (Chapters 25 to 38)

Description

The main aim of this course is to help trainees use the Harmonized System (HS) Nomenclature in a consistent and effective manner and thus facilitate the classification of internationally traded goods.

Duration: 4.5 hours

Objectives:

• Provide trainees with the necessary tools to understand the classification of mineral and chemical products.
• Provide trainees with effective and suitable resources to understand and master the commodity classification methodology.

It is highly recommended that trainees begin studying the Harmonized System by the WCO HS Foundation Course which provides an introduction to all the most essential basic concepts of the HS, main categories of commodities, common challenges faced by HS users when classifying products in the HS, as well as the organization of tariff classification work.
