What determines the tariff number?
- Material and composition. Lanyards made from synthetic fibres, plastic, or rubber-coated cords are classified differently. The decisive factor is which material predominates and how the components are bonded or joined.
- Manufacturing method. The production technique – whether braided, woven, corded, or with plastic coating – significantly influences the correct HS code classification.
- Intended use and application. Lanyards designed for luggage, suitcases, or leather goods may be classified differently than textile accessories for clothing or personal equipment.
- Metal fittings and closures. Integrated metal clasps, plastic snap mechanisms, or special fasteners can alter the tariff number depending on whether they are an integral part or separately attached.
