How to find the HS code for nail (Swiss tariff)
The correct HS code for nails depends on material, shaft construction and head composition. Copper, steel or iron materials determine classification, as does the mechanical design. Our free customs tariff number tool identifies the exact 8-digit Swiss code for your nail.

What determines the tariff number?
- Material of the nail. Nails made from copper or with a copper head are classified differently than those with a shaft of iron or steel. The material is a key factor in determining the customs tariff number.
- Shaft and head combination. Nails with a shaft of iron or steel and a copper head follow a distinct classification. This mixed-material construction is a central factor for the correct tariff code.
- Nail type and design. Whether the product is a standard nail, drawing pin, pointed staple or similar fastener affects the classification. The specific design must be stated in the tool.
