How to find HS codes when importing from US?

[scm5436]

I want to calculate how much duty would be payable when importing goods (for resale) from the US, but in order to calculate this I need the HS code.

How/where can I find out what the HS code is for these goods?

(It would be book/CD/DVD based learning materials)

Thanks, that looks like what I need, pity it's so unhelpful... Tried searching on CD, DVD, Compact Disc, Training, Learning, Books and couldn't find anything remotely like what I need...

Ask your supplier. We get asked all the time.

I put into google "HS code for DVD disk" and that was the second or third entry.

A supplier can give a starting point though the full 10 digits are often different. Its only the first 6 digits of the codes that are harmonised at a global level.
