The HS Code (Harmonized System Code) for cosmetic tubes is generally used to classify plastic or aluminum tubes for customs, import, and export purposes. Proper classification helps in tariff calculation and compliance with international trade regulations.
Typical HS Codes for Cosmetic Tubes
| Material Type | HS Code | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Empty Plastic Packaging Tubes | Heading 3923; confirm subheading | Articles for the conveyance or packing of goods, of plastics; other |
| Aluminum Tubes | 7612.10 | Collapsible aluminum packaging tubes; confirm the destination-country tariff extension |
| Laminated Tubes (Plastic + Aluminum) | Heading 3923; confirm subheading | Plastic laminated tubes used for toothpaste, sunscreen, or cosmetic creams |
For aluminum collapsible tubular containers, see the Government of Canada HS 761210 classification reference. Heading 7607 covers aluminum foil, rather than finished collapsible packaging tubes. Composite laminate structures require individual classification; use the destination country’s current tariff and obtain a customs ruling where needed.
Notes
- HS codes may vary depending on country-specific customs regulations.
- Always confirm with your local customs office or freight forwarder for precise classification.
- Using the correct HS code ensures proper tariff calculation and smooth import/export processes.
