What HS code 3813 covers

Heading 3813 is about what goes inside a fire extinguisher. It covers the chemical preparations used to put out fires. It also covers the charges that fill an extinguisher. And it covers charged fire-extinguishing grenades, which are small devices that already hold an extinguishing agent.

In plain terms, these are fire-extinguishing preparations sold as chemical goods. The heading text talks about preparations and charges, so read the full wording before you file a complete extinguisher under it. Traders use this heading on customs forms when they ship fire extinguisher charges across a border.

HS code 381300 and the 3813.00 form

You will see this heading written in a few ways. Some sources say HSN code 3813. Others say HTS code 3813.00. All of them point to the same goods, which the Harmonized System lists as 381300.

Countries share it up to the six-digit level. Many add longer national codes on top of 381300 for their own tariff classification, and those longer codes can differ from one country to the next.

The heading belongs to Chapter 38, which holds chemical products not named elsewhere. That chapter sits in the group of chemical industries in the HS nomenclature. Tariff rates vary by country and are not listed here. To check how your product is filed, try the HS code classifier.

How 3813 differs from nearby headings

Chapter 38 has many headings for chemical mixtures, so goods are easy to misfile. These are the ones most often confused with 3813:

  • 3824 is for chemical products and preparations not named anywhere else. Heading 3813 names extinguisher charges directly, so it is the more specific fit for them.
  • A product sold as a fire extinguisher charge is described by 3813. Check the wording and use the classifier if you are unsure.
  • 3820 is for anti-freezing preparations and prepared de-icing fluids. These do not fight fires.
  • 3814 is for organic composite solvents and thinners, and for paint or varnish removers.
