Harmonized
System revisions
The HS nomenclature is revised every five years. The last
revision was in 2002 and in 1996 before that. Clearly,
these two revisions have resulted in slightly different
categories, descriptions and classifications. For this
reason the WCO provides two tables correlating the 1996
and 2002 versions of the Harmonized System with each other.
The first table reflects the differences of the 2002 version
compared with the 1996 version, while the second table,
reflects the differences of the 1996 version compared with
the 2002 version.
Table
I (2002 - 1996)
Table
II (1996 - 2002)
A list of countries applying the convention can be obtained
here.
