Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) Classification

  • Global AI-Assisted HTS Classification

    KYG Trade’s AI-assisted technology streamlines the HTS classification process whether for a single product or for bulk classification while always having a human-in-the-loop.

    Efficiently gather product data from numerous sources including online catalogues, internal databases. and individual collaborators without leaving the platform.

    Trigger ChatHTS, and AI assistant Kay, to determine a classification or multiple classifications simultaneously (using Tradesheet).

    Kay sources the best option from KYG’s Trade Korpus including the General Rules of Interpretation (GRIs), chapter and explanatory notes, WCO notes, CIT rulings, and the actual Harmonized Tariff Schedule and generates a precise, 10-digit Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) code, in one attempt.

    By providing the user with Kay’s detailed reasoning for the suggested code, the user can review that reasoning or simply approve that code and move on.

    To further refine or correct Kay’s reasoning, users are prompted to have a natural language conversation with Kay, to arrive at the correct tariff code.

    All the reasoning, both AI assisted and human generated is stored with the product and the classification for future reference, audit trails and recordkeeping.

  • AI-Assisted Research of the US CBP CROSS Rulings

    Whether the user wants to verify an HS code, classify a newly-designed product, compare potential classifications or simply query the CROSS rulings, ChatKYG provides a brand new way to research.

    ChatKYG and Trade Korpus enable natural language conversations, aka prompts, with the CROSS Rulings.

    This AI assisted research tool is integrated into the KYG Trade core platform so users do not have to leave the compliance environment to do in-depth research.

    ChatKYG allows users to semantically search for rulings, read rulings referenced by the AI assistant, and have a natural language conversation with CROSS rulings. This research tool returns relevant results whether the prompt is for “cat food” or “feline chow.” This is the benefit of semantic vs, key word search. Users also have the ability to filter by type of ruling, date, and more.

    Easily compare results across multiple ruling determinations to ensure accurate classification.

  • Global Monitoring, Real-Time Updating and Alerts

    Reduce the risk of misclassification with KYG’s global regulation monitoring and alerts.

    KYG Trade’s technology keeps up with changes in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule and global import requirements. The platform is updated daily, and monitors existing HTS codes in case of a regulatory change. This ensures timely review, and re-classification, in response to an alert.

    This feature applies to all countries’ import code, since KYG Trade’s platform enables multi-country mapping for HS codes.

    A user’s work queue will reflect a potentially relevant change by labeling the classification as “suspect.” Suspect classifications can be filtered using advanced search and re-classified if necessary.

    All alerts, updates and changes are captured in a detailed change log and attached to the product and classification for effortless record keeping.

    Our approach ensures that global and domestic tariff codes remain accurate and up-to-date, safeguarding against compliance risks.
