Universal codes (6-digit)
Supply as many item details as possible to get an accurate HS code. While only item descriptions are required to return HS codes, additional item information (image URL, categories, etc.) will provide improved classifications.
Zonos Bulk Classify allows you to classify your entire catalog or bulk requests simultaneously.
Recommended: We highly recommend supplying an
idfor each item in your bulk classification request. This allows for more efficient and faster processing.

Bulk classification
Dynamically harmonize your products with Zonos Classify.Zonos Classify allows you to classify your items in bulk, either universally or to a specific country with our machine learning-built tool that generates instant, accurate (HS) codes with as little as an item description.
Classifying your products will typically improve your landed cost calculation when an import is over the duty de minimis, and a simplified duty is not available. It will also help flag restricted items, assign accurate duty and tax rates, and ensure compliance for a smooth customs clearance process.
