What HS code 3307 covers

You may see this heading called HSN code 3307 in India or HTS code 3307 in the United States. The first four digits are the same in all of them. They come from the Harmonized System, the shared customs language used for classification and the customs tariff.

Heading 3307 sits in Chapter 33, which deals with essential oils and resinoids and with perfumery, cosmetic or toilet preparations. It is a catch-all for products that are used on or around the body but do not fit the other cosmetic headings. Think of shaving foam, roll-on deodorant, bath salts, hair-removal creams and room sprays.

The legal wording is long, so here is the short version. If the product helps you shave, stay fresh, bathe, remove hair or make a room smell better, start your search here.

The subheadings in plain words

Each six-digit code narrows the heading to one kind of product. Here is what each one means in everyday terms.

• 330710: products used before, during or after shaving, such as shaving creams and after-shave lotions.
• 330720: personal deodorants and antiperspirants, such as sticks, sprays and roll-ons.
• 330741: room products that work by burning, such as agarbatti and other incense-type goods, including those used during religious rites.
• 330749: room perfuming or deodorising products that do not work by burning, such as sprays and gels.
• 330790: other perfuming or deodorising preparations in this heading that fit none of the codes above.

Difference between HS 3303 and 3307, and other Chapter 33 headings

Many buyers ask about the difference between HS 3303 and 3307. Heading 3303 is for perfumes and toilet waters, the scented liquids you wear as a fragrance. Heading 3307 is for the other products listed above, where the job is shaving, deodorising, bathing or freshening a room.

Heading 3304 covers beauty, make-up and skin care preparations, including sunscreen and manicure or pedicure products. Heading 3305 is for products used on the hair. Heading 3306 covers oral and dental hygiene, including dental floss in retail packs.

Two more headings sit at the start of the chapter. Heading 3302 is for odoriferous substances used as raw materials in industry or for making drinks. A fragrance ingredient sold in bulk usually belongs there, not in 3307.

One tip: a product is classed by its main purpose. A deodorant that also smells nice is still a deodorant, so it goes in 330720, not in 3303.

How to choose the right 3307 code

Work through the questions below in order. Stop at the first one that fits your product.

First, is it used for shaving? Use 330710. Second, is it worn on the body to stop odour or sweat? Use 330720. Third, is it added to a bath? Use 330730.

Fourth, is it made to scent or freshen a room? Check how it works. If it burns, as agarbatti and similar goods do, use 330741. If it does not burn, use 330749. Last, if the product belongs in this heading but matches none of these, use 330790.

Depilatories are named in the heading text, but they have no code of their own in the list above. If your product is unusual, check the exact wording of the codes or try the HS code classifier before you file.
