Reading code 320416

The first two digits (32) place this code in chapter 32 — Tanning, Dyes, Paints, and Inks. Heading 3204 groups the product family, and the remaining digits pin down this specific 6-digit classification. Remember: you can never invent a shorter code by truncating a longer one — only codes that exist in the official tariff are valid.

Tanning extracts, dyes, pigments, paints, varnishes, putty, and printing ink — core inputs for manufacturing and construction.
