Questions about NCM 8532.24.20

What is NCM 8532.24.20?

NCM 8532.24.20 (85322420) is the Brazilian (Mercosur) code for through-hole multilayer ceramic capacitors. Its official Portuguese description is “Próprios para montagem por inserção (PTH - Pin Through Hole)”.

What is the HS code for NCM 8532.24.20?

HS 8532.24 (Electrical capacitors; fixed, ceramic dielectric, multilayer). The first 6 digits of an NCM code are its international HS code; the last 2 digits are Brazil's own split.

Is an NCM code the same as an HS code?

The first 6 digits are the same in every country. NCM adds an item digit (7th) and a subitem digit (8th). A code ending in 00 means Brazil does not split that HS code further.

Which countries use NCM 8532.24.20?

All Mercosur members use the same NCM codes: Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay.
