Tariff Manual

A Tariff Manual is a comprehensive guide used by customs authorities to classify and assign duty rates to imported and exported goods. It provides standardized codes, descriptions, and valuation methods to ensure consistent, fair, and transparent application of tariffs across different shipments. Essentially, it helps customs officials and businesses determine the correct duties and taxes owed on goods crossing borders, facilitating smooth international trade while protecting domestic industries. The manual is regularly updated to reflect changes in trade agreements, tariffs, and product classifications.
