We just released an exclusive and highly anticipated feature for ShipStation merchants who use our Shopify integration. You can now import Harmonization Codes from Shopify into the order's customs declarations in ShipStation.
Watch our video to learn how to import Harmonization Codes from Shopify.
Some benefits of this new feature include:
-
Better compliance for cross-border shipping
-
Trust that packages won't get stuck in customs
-
Enable this feature with a click inside ShipStation
Enable the Import Harmonization Codes feature on a per-store basis by going to Settings > Selling Channels > Store Setup and choosing your Shopify store(s). Click Edit Shopify Settings in the General tab, and then check the box beside Import harmonization codes in the Modify Marketplace Settings pop-up. That's it!
If you set a 6-digit HS code for a product on Shopify’s side, we will auto-fill the customs declaration with the HS codes when we import orders containing that product. The item options will also include the Harmonization code in addition to options such as size and color attached to the SKU. There's no need to set this up separately in ShipStation.
About the Import Harmonization Codes Feature
-
The Harmonization System (HS) code will NOT be added to product defaults in ShipStation.
-
Shopify’s Import Harmonization Code feature overrides ShipStation's product information on the order. Customs Item Value and Country of Origin are exceptions to this override.
-
If you set International Settings - Customs Declarations to
Use Pre-Defined Values, ShipStation's International Customs Settings will override Shopify settings. -
ShipStation only imports the 6-digit harmonization code. The 8-digit harmonization code is destination-specific, and will not import. HS codes for a product on Shopify’s side should never use 8-digit HS codes unless the item only ships internationally and to one destination.
