Import Risk Check
Enter an HS code to see its EU import risk level and the compliance obligations that come with it — CBAM, anti-dumping, sanctions and more.
Every product you import into the EU carries a compliance profile that goes far beyond its duty rate. An HS code can trigger CBAM reporting, anti-dumping duties, product-safety regimes, or sanctions depending on origin. This free tool maps an HS code to a risk level from L0 (no special regimes) to L6 (import prohibited) and lists the regimes and obligations that apply, based on a versioned, EUR-Lex-referenced rule set — deterministic, not a guess. Add an origin country to sharpen origin-dependent flags such as anti-dumping and sanctions.
Classify the product behind the code
A risk profile is only as good as the HS code it starts from. Import8 classifies your actual product — from a description, image or URL — and returns the code with this exact risk and documents overview attached. 5 free classifications, no card required.

What do the risk levels L0–L6 mean?
L0 means no special regime applies beyond standard clearance; higher levels add obligations (conformity, licensing, reporting) up to L6, which indicates the import is prohibited. The level is the maximum across all regimes that apply to the code.
Why does the country of origin matter?
Some regimes are origin-dependent: anti-dumping duties target specific countries, and sanctions apply only to listed origins. Without an origin these are shown as conditional; add one to resolve them.
Is this the same data Import8 uses?
Yes. The risk grade is produced by the same deterministic engine that annotates every classification inside Import8, from the same EUR-Lex-referenced rule set.
