H / Harmonized System Code

This is the six-digit code that every product is assigned under the Harmonized System. Whatever product you are shipping, you must supply an appropriate Harmonized Code (HS Code). When you book with Shipa Freight, we will help you determine the HS codes that apply to your shipment.
