What determines the tariff number?
- Material (wood or metal). Hangers made of wood and those made of base metals are classified into different tariff groups. The material determines the primary classification category.
- Metal type and fasteners. For metal hangers, closures, buckles, and clasps are decisive factors. These functional elements significantly influence the exact tariff number assigned.
- Construction and mechanism. Simple hangers differ in classification from those with mechanical closures or clamps. The functional design of the hanger affects its tariff assignment.
- Designation for apparel. Hangers are classified as clothing accessories. This distinction from hangers for other purposes fundamentally influences their customs tariff number.
