The rule names HS 2012 code(s) 8456.10 that the current nomenclature does not have; materials of the same heading go to review (OPEN-06). Grammar elements (D-100): also_from, good_description, review_materials, rvc, same_code_review. Edition HS2022 and effective date 2020-07-01 set by FSRC at load (D-91; OPEN-06: the Annex is written against HS 2012 nomenclature; transposition not applied). Approved in bulk on the owner's instruction (FSRC owner (user 480c01a9-b5b3-4a3e-a5d0-223e73975b24), 2026-11-10; D-73).
Edition of the Harmonized System: the product-specific rules of CUSMA Annex 4-B were written against the 2012 edition (HS 2012). This release applies them to codes of today’s tariffs, which follow the 2022 edition (HS 2022), without transposing them (open question OPEN-06). Where a code was created, split or renumbered after 2012, check the rule against the official text.
