BASED ON THE 2017 EDITION OF THE HARMONIZED COMMODITY DESCRIPTION AND CODING SYSTEM (HS)

The
classification  structure  of  the  Schedule  of Rates is based on the
2017 sixth edition Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System,
commonly known as the Harmonized System (HS). The Statistical
Classification Numbers are based on the Standard International Trade
Classification, Fourth Revision. The units for statistical
classification are based on the metric system.

The General Rules
for the Interpretation of the Harmonized System provide the principles
on which classification under that System is based and are an integral
part of the classification structure of the Schedule of Rates, as are
the Section, Chapter and Additional CARICOM Guidelines.
