UAE exporters can now benefit from greater market access through preferential tariff rates. Some products will be subject to zero tariffs from day one - others will see them reduced over time. To determine the tariff classification (your HS code for your product), review the dashboard and find the tariff line description that best represents your product. From there you can view the preferential tariff rate for your product and estimate the charges.
