Malawi HS Code

HS Code 85331000: Fixed carbon resistors, composition or film types (excl. heating resistors) in Malawi

Q: Is HS code 85331000 the same across all countries?

Only the first 6 digits of HS code 85331000 are internationally harmonized. The remaining digits are added by Malawi under HS-MW and are not directly comparable to other countries' codes.

Q: What system does Malawi use to classify HS code 85331000?

Malawi classifies products under the Malawi Customs and Excise Tariff (HS-MW; locally Customs and Excise Tariff Order), which extends HS codes to 8 digits. The first 6 digits align with the WCO Harmonized System, and the rest cover national tariff and statistical needs.
