1996 Schedule B (Classification of Exports)
Commodity Classification - Schedule B
There are millions of trade transactions occuring each year. These transactions
are classified under approximately 8,000 different products leaving the United
States. Every item that is exported is assigned a unique 10-digit identification
code. Every 10-digit item is part of a series of progressively broader product
categories. For example, concentrated frozen apple juice is assigned a 10-digit
identifier that is aggregated into a broader category assigned a 6-digit
identifier described as apple juice. The 6-digit identifier described as apple
juice is aggregated into a broader category assigned a 4-digit identifier
described as fruit juices and vegetable juices, etc. The 4-digit identifier is
further aggregated into a broader category assigned a 2-digit identifier
described as Preparations of Vegetables, Fruit, Nuts etc. The following pointers
