The percentage shown is the Mercosur Common External Tariff, taken from the nomenclature in force published by the MERCOSUR Secretariat. It is not necessarily the duty Argentina applies: national exception lists, special regimes and temporary measures change it. And classification is not word matching: it is settled by the General Interpretative Rules, the section and chapter notes and what the product actually does. Before you file, ask us for the reasoned classification and the duty in force for your case.

Torn between two codes?

It is the most expensive difference in foreign trade. Describe the product and we will return the classification with its technical basis.
