Multiple Harmonization codes for a single product

[Loerts]

Has anyone found a way to apply multiple harmonization codes to a single product automatically? US customs states

"You must classify each item in the set individually for customs clearance, as the goods do not form a single functional unit or "composite good". U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) rulings have found that items sold together as "gift sets" that do not relate to a single need or activity must be classified separately."

I need a way to have a single gift box product trigger 15 HS codes without having to manually edit every single order.

Hello @Loerts!

First, welcome to the Community! We're so excited to have you here. This space is a fantastic place to find answers, share feedback, and suggest new product features—we hope you find it both helpful and inspiring!

Regarding your question about applying multiple Harmonized System (HS) codes to a single product, I have reached out to our team for guidance. While ShipStation doesn’t currently allow multiple HS codes on a single SKU, the development team recommends using the Bundles and Kits feature as a great workaround.

Here’s how you can set it up:

1. Go to the Products tab and create a new product for your "Gift Box" (e.g., SKU-GIFTBOX-LARGE).
2. In the General tab, check “This is a bundle.”
3. A new Bundled Items tab will appear.
4. Click “Add Bundled Item” and search for the SKUs of your component products, adding them one by one.
5. Set the quantity for each item (e.g., “1” of each).

Using this approach, each item in the bundle retains its own HS code, ensuring accurate and seamless customs documentation. It’s a smart way to manage bundles while keeping everything compliant and organized!

If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Happy Shipping!
