## Frequently asked questions

### What does customs tariff code 60 cover?

Code 60 covers KNITTED OR CROCHETED FABRICS. Classification turns on the material, function, and intended use of the goods, not on their trade name.

### What is the duty rate for 60?

TARIC holds no third-country rate of its own for 60. The rate follows from the declarable commodity code beneath it.

### How many digits does 60 have?

60 has two digits and identifies a Harmonised System chapter. A German import declaration requires the eleven-digit commodity code.

### Is there binding tariff information for 60?

The EBTI database currently holds no valid decisions on 60. Comparable cases are found through the parent heading instead.

### What happens if the customs tariff code is wrong?

An incorrect code leads to post-clearance recovery of duty and import VAT, delays at clearance, and a penalty where it repeats. A classification with documented reasoning can be defended in an audit.

### Does customs tariff code 60 change?

60 is currently valid. The Combined Nomenclature is amended every 1 January, so master data should be checked against the current tariff annually.
