In this IMG activity, you define the lengths of the commodity code and the import code number for the country in which you use the Sales and Distribution and Materials Management application components.

Use

The commodity code is an internationally recognized classifying characteristic for trade statistics and trade with third countries.

In order to facilitate foreign trade, the WTO countries have agreed that the first six digits are identical for all countries. This classification of goods is called the Harmonized System (HS).

Example

In the European Union:

  • Commodity code: 8 digits
  • Import code number: 11 digits

The valid commodity code is defined in the official "Nomenclature of Goods for Foreign Trade Statistics"; the valid import code number is defined in the valid customs tariff.
The commodity code is used, for example, for monthly declarations to the authorities, both for receipt and dispatch.

In Japan:

  • Commodity code: 10 digits
  • Import code number: 10 digits

The commodity code is defined in the Export Statistical Schedule; the import code number is defined in the relevant duty rates of the Customs Tariff Schedules.
These numbers are published by the Japan Tariff Association.
