Reading code 9601

The first two digits (96) place this code in chapter 96 — Miscellaneous Manufactured Articles. As a 4-digit heading it groups a whole product family; 6 and 8-digit codes underneath it get more specific. Remember: you can never invent a shorter code by truncating a longer one — only codes that exist in the official tariff are valid.

Brooms, brushes, pens, lighters, buttons, and other manufactured articles that fit nowhere else.
