HS Codes
Product classification is a key element in international trade. The publication Harmonized System (HS) Codes for fisheries and aquaculture products – Nomenclature 2022, developed by FAO GLOBEFISH in collaboration with the World Customs Organizations (WCO), builds on the Harmonized System 2017 Edition and provides an internationally recognized product classification system. It is used for many purposes, including import duties, rules of origin, freight documents and statistics.

FAO GLOBEFISH is a multi-donor funded project established in 1984 within the Fisheries and Aquaculture Division of FAO (NFI) to produce and disseminate up-to-date information and analysis on trade and markets for fisheries and aquaculture products.

FAO GLOBEFISH promotes and facilitates information exchange among the seafood industry, governments, academia and stakeholders worldwide, providing a platform for capacity-building, coordination and dialogue.
