Rwanda HS Code

HS Code 853339: Electrical resistors (including rheostats and potentiometers), other than heating resistors : Wirewound variable resistors, including rheostats and potentiometers : Other in Rwanda

Q: Is HS code 853339 the same across all countries?

Yes — up to the 6-digit level, HS code 853339 is the same in every WCO member country. Beyond 6 digits, each country extends the code for national tariff and statistical use. Rwanda extends it under EAC CET.

Q: What system does Rwanda use to classify HS code 853339?

Rwanda classifies products under the EAC Common External Tariff (EAC CET; locally EAC CET), 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.

Q: Where can I officially look up HS code 853339 in Rwanda?
