What determines the tariff number?
- Material. Solenoid valves made from cast iron, iron, or steel are classified differently than those from other materials. The base material is decisive for tariff classification.
- Design and function. The distinction between electrically operated solenoid valves and purely mechanical valve systems is important. Integration into larger systems (such as air or gas compressors) can also affect classification.
- Intended use. Valves for heating systems, compressed air distribution, or other technical applications may receive different tariff codes. The specific purpose of use is relevant for correct classification.

What happens if I use the wrong HS code?
Incorrect classification can lead to delays in customs processing or additional costs. That is why correct classification is important. Our tool helps you avoid these issues.
Is there a difference between the international HS code and the Swiss customs tariff number?
