Find your Swiss tariff number with AI

The AI searches the official Swiss customs tariff nomenclature (Tares), reads the relevant section and chapter notes, and verifies candidates in several stages before proposing the 8-digit tariff number with a confidence level. Unlike a plain keyword search, the AI understands product descriptions in natural language — material, use and form all feed into the classification.

It's the 8-digit code (Tarifnummer) that classifies a product in the Swiss customs tariff (Tares). The first 6 digits follow the international Harmonized System (HS); Switzerland adds 2 digits. The number determines duty rates, VAT and any permits.

The HS code is the international 6-digit heading. The Swiss tariff number extends it to 8 digits with national subheadings, so it is more specific than a plain HS code.
