Schedule B and Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) Updated in the Automated Export System (AES)

Effective February 10, 2022, all HS 2022 updates to the Schedule B and Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) will be available for use in AES.

AES will accept shipments with outdated codes during a grace period for 30 days beyond the expiration date of February 10, 2022. Reporting an outdated code after the 30-day grace period will result in a fatal error.

The ACE AESDirect program will be updated with these new Schedule B and HTS codes and will accept shipments with outdated codes during the grace period.

The full 2022 Schedule B and HTS tables are available for downloading at:
