HSN code 8022 falls under Chapter 80 of the Indian Harmonized System of Nomenclature, which is dedicated to Tin and Articles thereof. However, the specific description for 8022 is "Hazelnuts or filberts (Corylus spp.)". This code is used in India for customs and GST purposes to classify these specific types of nuts. It's crucial for importers, exporters, and accountants to correctly identify this code for accurate duty and tax assessment. While Chapter 80 deals with tin, the 4-digit code 8022 diverts to an agricultural product, highlighting the hierarchical nature of HSN classification. Buyers and sellers trading in nuts would use this designation. MetaleMart, your premier B2B marketplace for industrial metals, operates under different HSN chapters that cover metals like steel, aluminium, copper, and their alloys.
What HSN 8022 Covers
HSN code 8022 is specifically designated for "Hazelnuts or filberts (Corylus spp.)" within India's customs and Goods and Services Tax (GST) framework. This classification applies exclusively to these particular types of nuts, whether they are fresh, dried, shelled, or unshelled. It is essential for any importer or exporter dealing specifically with hazelnuts to use this correct HSN code for customs declarations, duty calculations, and GST compliance. Misclassification can lead to penalties and complications during import or export processes.
It is crucial to understand that HSN 8022 has no overlap with industrial metals. Chapter 80 of the HSN is titled "Tin and Articles Thereof," but the 4-digit code 8022 is an exception, detailing an agricultural product. This can sometimes cause confusion for those who may mistakenly look for metal-related classifications within this chapter. For procurement of metals like stainless steel, mild steel, aluminium, copper, brass, or their alloys in forms such as bars, sheets, pipes, or wires, buyers must refer to the appropriate HSN codes under different chapters, such as Chapter 72 for steel, Chapter 74 for copper, and Chapter 76 for aluminium. MetaleMart exclusively deals with industrial metals and their respective HSN classifications, facilitating seamless transactions for these materials.
