Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 3307 when importing or exporting products like shaving cream, personal deodorants, or bath salts. For example, if you're shipping a box of after-shave lotion, this heading is the right choice for classification.
When deciding between HS-6 330710 and HS-6 330720, consider the specific use of the product. If it’s a shaving gel, classify it under 330710. However, if it’s an antiperspirant stick, then 330720 is appropriate.
For bath products, HS-6 330730 covers perfumed bath salts and similar preparations, while HS-6 330741 and HS-6 330749 differentiate between room deodorizers that burn and those that don’t. Ensure you know how your product operates to select the correct code.
If your product doesn’t fit neatly into the previous categories, check HS-6 330790, which is for miscellaneous perfuming or deodorizing preparations not specifically classified elsewhere in this heading.
