HS Code 2820Manganese oxides
2 six-digit codes · Heading 20 of 50 in Chapter 28 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System
HS code 2820 is the customs heading for manganese oxides, a group of chemicals made from manganese and oxygen. This page shows what the heading covers, how to pick the right code, and where to find import and export data.
Heading 2820 splits exactly two ways. Goods answering to “Manganese oxides” classify either at 282010 or at 282090, and the wording in the table below is the whole of what separates them. The heading is number 20 of 50 in Chapter 28, Inorganic chemicals; organic and inorganic compounds of precious metals; of rare earth metals, of radio-active elements and of isotopes, which runs to 180 six-digit codes in all.
What HS code 2820 covers
Heading 2820 is for manganese oxides. These are compounds of manganese and oxygen. Customs treats them as inorganic chemicals, so they sit in Chapter 28. The codes come from the Harmonized System, the shared list kept by the WCO.
You may see the same code called an HSN code or an HTS code. The label changes from country to country, but the first six digits match. A country can add more digits after them for its own tariff. A search for HSN code 2820 or HTS code 2820 therefore points to the same group of goods.
Use the heading when your product is a manganese oxide. If it is a different metal compound, look at the nearby headings further down this page.
HS 282010 vs 282090: manganese dioxide or other manganese oxides
The choice depends on the name of the compound. Check the product name on the invoice and the safety data sheet. Then match it to one of the two codes.
The wording of 282090 says it excludes manganese dioxide. This means the two codes never overlap. A product is either manganese dioxide or it is not.
- 282010: manganese dioxide.
- 282090: manganese oxides other than manganese dioxide. Use it for every other manganese oxide.

Related oxide headings in Chapter 28
Other metals have their own oxide headings. A wrong pick here is easy to make, because the names look alike. Check that the metal in your product is manganese before you use 2820.
Heading 2825 is a catch-all for other metal oxides, hydroxides and peroxides. Look there when the metal does not have a heading of its own.
- 2821 covers iron oxides and hydroxides, and some earth colours.
- 2823 covers titanium oxides.
- 2825 covers other metal oxides, hydroxides and peroxides, plus some bases.
