Nigeria HS Code

HS Code 840820: Compressionignition internal combustion piston engines (diesel or semidiesel engines) : Engines of a kind used for the propulsion of vehicles of Chapter 87 in Nigeria

Q: Is HS code 840820 the same across all countries?

Yes — up to the 6-digit level, HS code 840820 is the same in every WCO member country. Beyond 6 digits, each country extends the code for national tariff and statistical use. Nigeria extends it under ECOWAS CET.

Q: What system does Nigeria use to classify HS code 840820?

Nigeria classifies products under the ECOWAS Common External Tariff (ECOWAS CET; locally ECOWAS CET), which extends HS codes to 10 digits. The first 6 digits align with the WCO Harmonized System, and the rest cover national tariff and statistical needs.

Q: Where can I officially look up HS code 840820 in Nigeria?
