Classify bulk upload

Use Dashboard for bulk item classification.

Upload a CSV with your items to Dashboard and instantly receive universal and country-specific HS code classifications. To ensure accurate classification, while only a product name is required, it is recommended to provide as many fields as possible to generate precise classifications.

Note: Universal (6-digit) 2022 WCO HS codes are included at no extra cost with country-specific classifications. If you only need universal classifications, you'll be charged.

Bulk classification steps 

Follow the steps below to submit and retrieve bulk HS code classifications via CSV.

Request limit: The default Classify bulk upload request limit is 50 MB or about 400,000 items.

  1. Go to Dashboard -> Products -> Bulk classification.
  2. Download the template CSV by clicking on New bulk request located in the top right corner.

    1. The only field (or in the context of the CSV, column header) required to request a bulk classification is a product name.

  5. If you want to classify to specific countries, select add countries and select the countries you’d like to classify to.
