HS code for Bubble bath: 3307.30
Perfumery, cosmetic or toilet preparations, perfumed bath salts and other bath preparations.
Classification of bubble bath under HS 3307.30
Bubble bath preparations are classified under HS code 3307.30, which falls within Chapter 33 of the Harmonized System. This chapter encompasses essential oils, resinoids, and various perfumery, cosmetic, or toilet preparations. Heading 3307 specifically covers pre-shave, shaving, or after-shave preparations, personal deodorants, and bath preparations. Subheading 3307.30 is designated for perfumed bath salts and other bath preparations. The classification is based on the product's primary function as a cosmetic or toilet preparation designed to be added to bath water to create foam, provide fragrance, or condition the skin. Even if the product contains surface-active agents (surfactants), it remains in 3307.30 if it is presented as a bath preparation rather than a simple soap or general-purpose detergent.

Codes often confused with 3307.30
Common mistake. Bubble bath is often misclassified under HS code 3401.30, which covers organic surface-active products and preparations for washing the skin, in the form of liquid or cream and put up for retail sale. While both products clean the skin, 3307.30 is more specific for preparations intended to be added to the bath water itself. Another common error is using HS code 3402.20, which covers surface-active agents and detergents. If the product is marketed for personal hygiene in the bath, Chapter 33 is the correct location. Medicated bath preparations may also be confused with this code but should be classified under Chapter 30 if they contain therapeutic properties.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
