Reading code 3304

The first two digits (33) place this code in chapter 33 — Essential Oils, Perfumery, Cosmetics. As a 4-digit heading it groups a whole product family; 6 and 8-digit codes underneath it get more specific.

Essential oils, perfumes, and the full cosmetics aisle — skincare, haircare, oral hygiene — generally at 18% GST.
