Tariff classification

Describe your product. DutiveX determines the tariff classification and explains why.

DutiveX asks only the questions that matter, works from official tariff schedules, and returns the code together with the reasoning behind it — for every jurisdiction you need.

8413.70

Pumps for liquids — other centrifugal pumps

Facts used

  • Moves liquid
  • Centrifugal action
  • Electrically driven
  • Stainless steel body

Why this code

The product is a pump for liquids, which places it in heading 8413. It moves liquid by centrifugal action and is not one of the pump types named in the earlier subheadings, so it is classified as another centrifugal pump.

Source

Harmonized System tariff schedule, Chapter 84, heading 8413

An example of how a result is presented. It is not a customs determination.

How it works

Four steps, and nothing you have to learn first.

You do not need to know the tariff structure to use DutiveX. You need to know your product.

01

Describe the product

In plain language, or straight from a specification. What the product is, what it does and what it is made of.

02

Answer only what is missing

DutiveX asks a question only where the missing detail would change the outcome. There is no long intake form to complete.

03

Choose the jurisdictions

Select the destinations the decision has to hold up in. Each one is worked through against its own tariff schedule.

04

Receive the code and the reasoning

The tariff code for each jurisdiction, together with the facts it relied on and the tariff path that led there.

What you receive

A result you can explain to someone else.

A tariff code on its own cannot be reviewed. DutiveX returns the code together with everything needed to check it.

  • The tariff codeThe classification for each jurisdiction you selected.
  • The official descriptionThe wording of the heading and subheading as the tariff schedule states it.
  • The facts usedWhich of your product details the classification actually depended on.
  • Why this path was followedThe route from chapter to heading to subheading, written in plain language.
  • The official sourceThe schedule the result was read from, so the analysis can be checked at source.

Jurisdictions

One product description, the jurisdictions you actually ship to.

The same product can sit differently in different tariff schedules. DutiveX works each selected jurisdiction through its own schedule rather than copying one answer across them.

USUnited States
UKUnited Kingdom
EUEuropean Union
JPJapan
SGSingapore
KRSouth Korea

These are the jurisdictions DutiveX is being built around, and further jurisdictions are added one at a time. This is not a claim of completed coverage — the jurisdictions available in a pilot are agreed case by case.

Where the line sits

DutiveX prepares the analysis. Your authorised person makes the decision.

Classification carries legal responsibility, so DutiveX is built to be checked rather than trusted blindly. Every result is presented with the reasoning and the source behind it, so the person accountable in your business can review the work before it is used.

  • Reasoning stays visible. No code is returned without the path that produced it.
  • Sources stay attached. Every result names the official schedule it was read from.
  • Missing facts stay visible. Where a detail is needed and absent, DutiveX says so instead of assuming it.
  • The decision stays yours. DutiveX is not a customs broker and does not provide legal advice.

Who it is for

Built for teams that classify the same kinds of products again and again.

Manufacturers

Companies with technical product catalogues — machinery, components, assemblies or specialised goods.

Importers and exporters

Teams handling recurring product flows across several suppliers, shipments or destinations.

Trade and compliance teams

People responsible for consistency, documentation and customs risk inside the business.

Pilot programme

Work through a difficult classification with us.

We are speaking with a small number of manufacturers, importers and trade professionals. Bring one product that is genuinely hard to classify and we will work through it together.
