Introduction
1. Classification of goods for import and export purposes, either manufactured / produced locally is based on the
Customs Duty Order 1996 effective 1
st
January 1996 which in turn was based on the Harmonized Commodity Description
and Coding System or in short Harmonised System (HS).
2. The classification of imported / exported manufactured goods serves the purpose of determining the rate of duty / tax
imposed on the goods as enforced in the Customs Duty Order. It also serves to ensure that the goods are not listed under
the prohibited import and export items of the Customs Order (Prohibition Regarding Imports) or (Prohibition Regarding
Exports) or vice versa.
