We are happy to present the Import Tariff Guide in electronic format for the second time in succession. In fact the Import Tariff Guide 2004 was an instant success.
In this Tariff Guide we have incorporated all changes made to the existing levies of Customs Duty , Surcharge, VAT, Cess, Excise and PAL up to 12 June 2005 and included the Social Responsibility Levy [SRL] which was introduced in 2005 Budget.Further we have updated all the other existing informative data with latest amendments.
In addition we have added following new features in this issue of Import Tariff Guide 2005.
1. All levies (Customs Duty, Surcharge, VAT, Excise, Cess, PAL & SRL) in single line.
2. Automatic calculation of the Effective Rate of all levies.
3. Compilation of VAT exemptions
4. Compilation of Excise Duty Exemptions
We hope the automatic formula for the calculation of the Effective Rate would be a very handy tool where one can input the rates of levies and obtain the total effective rate of a particular item. This will be very helpful to get an idea of the total duty payable.
We thank the Director General of Customs Mr. Sarath Jayathilake for his blessings and support given to us on embarking this project. We also thank the Deputy Director of Customs [Policy Planning & Research] Mr. P.W.Amaradiwakara for guidance given through out this exercise and staff of the Policy Planning & Research Division, without whose corporation this project would not have been a reality. Our special thanks go out to Mr. L.G.A.Sathath of Policy Planning & Research Division who helped in numerous ways in this production.Our gratitude is also extended to Mr.A.K.Seneviratne of Department of Fiscal Policy, Ministry of Finance for providing the necessary technical assistance.

(ii)Depending upon the national requirements, it is further sub-divided at national level. Identification of all Commodities shall be by reference to the HS Codes consisting of six digits, or where sub-divided, by reference to the National Sub-commodity Codes consisting of eight digits.
3.For determination of the duty rate or rates applicable for any goods, wares or merchandise, hereinafter referred to as commodities, the same shall be classified in the said nomenclature.
4.Where a commodity code is sub-divided at national level, it shall be mandatory to classify the commodity up to the eight digit.
5.The classification of the commodities in the nomenclature up to the sixth digit, shall be governed by the principles set out under the General Rules for the interpretation of the HS.
6.For the purposes of para.05, reference shall be made to the Explanatory Notes to the said HS.

GENERAL RULES FOR THE INTERPRETATION OF THE HARMONIZED SYSTEM
BACKClassification of goods in the Nomenclature shall be governed by the following principles:
1.The titles of Sections, Chapters and sub-Chapters are provided for ease of reference only; for legal purposes, classification shall be determined according to the terms of the headings and any relative Section or Chapter Notes and, provided such headings or Notes do not otherwise require, according to the following provisions:
2. (a)Any reference in a heading to an article shall be taken to include a reference to that article incomplete or unfinished, provided that, as presented, the incomplete or unfinished article has the essential character of the complete or finished article. It shall also be taken to include a reference to that article complete or finished (or falling to be classified as complete or finished by virtue of this Rule), presented unassembled or disassembled.
(b) Any reference in a heading to a material or substance shall be taken to include a reference to mixtures or combinations of that material or substance with other materials or substances. Any reference to goods of a given material or substance shall be taken to include a reference to goods consisting wholly or partly of such material or substance. The classification of goods consisting of more than one material or substance shall be according to the principles of Rule 3.
3. When by application of Rule 2 (b) or for any other reason, goods are, prima facie, classifiable under two or more headings, classification shall be effected as follows:
(a) The heading which provides the most specific description shall be preferred to headings providing a more general description. However, when two or more headings each refer to part only of the materials of substances contained in mixed or composite goods or to part only of the items in a set put up for retail sale, those headings are to be regarded as equally specific in relation to those goods, even if one of them gives a more complete or precise description of the goods.
(b) Mixtures, composite goods consisting of different materials or made up of different components, and goods put up in sets for retail sale, which cannot be classified by reference to 3 (a), shall be classified as if they consisted of the material or component which gives them their essential character, insofar as this criterion is applicable.
(c) When goods cannot be classified by reference to 3 (a) or 3 (b), they shall be classified under the heading which occurs last in numerical order among those which equally merit consideration.
4. Goods which cannot be classified in accordance with the above Rules shall be classified under the heading appropriate to the goods to which they are most akin.
5. In addition to the foregoing provisions, the following Rules shall apply in respect of the goods referred to therein :
(a) Camera cases, musical instrument cases, gun cases, drawing instrument cases, necklace cases and similar containers, specially shaped or fitted to contain a specific article or set of articles, suitable for long-term use and presented with the articles for which they are intended, shall be classified with such articles when of a kind normally sold therewith. This Rule does not, however, apply to containers which give the whole its essential character;
(b) Subject to the provisions of Rule 5 (a) above, packing materials and packing containers presented with the goods therein shall be classified with the goods if they are of a kind normally used for packing such goods. However, this provision is not binding when such packing materials or packing containers are clearly suitable for repetitive use.
6. For legal purposes, the classification of goods in the subheadings of a heading shall be determined according to the terms of those subheadings and any related Subheading Notes and, mutatis mutandis, to the above Rules, on the understanding that only subheadings at the same level are comparable. For the purposes of this Rule the relative Section and Chapter Notes also apply, unless the context otherwise requires.
