Browse 9,731 Schedule B codes published by the U.S. Census Bureau. These codes classify all goods exported from the United States and are required on Shipper's Export Declarations (SED) and Automated Export System (AES) filings.
Schedule B is the statistical classification system for all merchandise exported from the United States. Maintained by the U.S. Census Bureau's Foreign Trade Division, it is based on the international Harmonized System (HS) and is used by exporters, freight forwarders, and customs brokers to classify goods on export documentation.
Unlike the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) used for imports, Schedule B is used exclusively for exports. The first six digits align with the international HS standard, while the full 10-digit code provides US-specific statistical detail. The Census Bureau uses this data to compile official US export trade statistics.
Exporters must report Schedule B codes on Automated Export System (AES) filings for shipments valued over $2,500 or requiring an export license. Incorrect classification can result in penalties, shipment delays, and compliance issues with the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) export controls.
