Understanding HS Codes in UAE Trade
HS Code (Harmonized System Code) is an international product classification system regulated by the World Customs Organization (WCO).
It determines:
Customs duties & VAT payable
Approvals or permits required (Municipality, MOHAP, ESMA)
Product restrictions or inspection rules
Eligibility for free trade or duty exemption agreements
HS Codes used in UAE contain:
➡ 6-digit global HS code + extended local digits for UAE requirements
Example:
Cars — 8703.23.90
Electronics — 8517.62.00
Using the correct classification ensures your goods follow the right customs regulations from origin to destination.
