Section-level AHECC page. Use it to move from the broad export commodity family into the correct chapters and then to the final 8-digit item code.
What this section covers
AHECC sections are the broadest grouping level in the export commodity hierarchy. They are useful when you know the commodity family but still need to narrow the result to the correct chapter and 8-digit code.
In practical export work, this page is a navigation layer rather than the code you would put on a declaration.
