Finnish Customs Tariff
The Finnish Customs Tariff (Customs manual II) is based on the Integrated Tariff of the European Union (Taric), which is a database maintained by the European Commission.
The chapters of the Finnish Customs Tariff and the notes to the chapters and sections are published in PDF format in the commodity code service Fintaric.
A commodity code must be declared for all goods imported and exported; the customs taxation of goods and the compilation of trade statistics is based on the commodity code. Information about changes to the Finnish Customs Tariff is published in customer notices once a month.

There are changes to the nomenclature every year and the nomenclature that will come into force in the beginning of the following year is published yearly in the Official Journal of the European Union, by the end of October at the latest.

The Combined Nomenclature (CN) of the European Union is a further development of the HS Nomenclature, with more fine-grained subdivisions. The Combined Nomenclature is used for statistical declarations for intra-EU trade as well as for exports.
The explanatory notes to the Combined Nomenclature explain the scope of the various CN headings. The most recent official version of the explanatory notes, published 29 March 2019, is available on Eur-Lex.
Explanatory notes that have entered into force after the publication of the official version have been included in consolidated versions, which can be accessed through the menu on the Eur-Lex website. These consolidated versions have no legal effect, but the authentic versions of the relevant acts are directly accessible through the links embedded in the document.
The most recent consolidated version includes all explanatory notes applicable on 24 June 2025.
