Store Closed Seller Ships to My Country Store: Rob's Brick Alliance
I'm a US seller trying to figure out how to ship to US territories and APOs.
When I go through PayPal's shipping partner Shipstation, I get prompted to
fill out some customs fields. One is "Harmonization Code" and I don't
know what to enter here. Does anyone know what I should enter? Thanks.

Do you know if there is a HS code for Empty Boxes?

I don’t know, it wasn’t in the message I saved.

But I would guess it could be in Printed Material, so 49-something, or in “boxes”
48.19-something.

I found this site to help find codes: https://uscensus.prod.3ceonline.com

Merci Sylvain!


As for instructions I think I will use 49019900 (instead of 49011020 in the message
you saved).

https://www.tariffnumber.com/2024/4901


As for empty boxes I will use 48191000

https://www.tariffnumber.com/2024/4819


For parts & sets I will keep using good old 95030035 (I was using it for everything
LEGO)

For empty boxes, leave the HS code box empty.

Same for me. I've used this code for all LEGO products (bricks, figs, stickers,
instructions, boxes, etc). shipped 1000's with that code, never a problem.

The European site (tariffnumber) doesn't even recognize it.

But then again the US site (uscensus) doesn't recognize 95030035.

Oh well.

Me too, I've always figured we can't really know the country of origin
so what's the sense in specifying Denmark?
