What determines the tariff number?
- Material composition. Diapers consist of multiple material layers. The specific composition of absorbent and structural materials determines the tariff classification and thus the HS code.
- Size and packaging. Package size and quantity per unit are classification-relevant factors. Diapers for different age groups and package configurations may receive different tariff numbers.
- Special features and functions. Diapers with enhanced absorbency, fragrance, wetness indicators, or specialised closure systems may be classified differently than standard variants.
- Target user and intended use. Whether the diaper is designed for infants, toddlers, or adults affects its classification. The intended use is a primary factor in determining the customs tariff number.
