Tariff Code Compliance for Shopify

Stop guessing HS and HTS codes. Keep your Shopify catalog up to date as products and U.S. HTS versions change.

Tariff Code Compliance watches your product catalog and helps keep HS and US HTS codes current as products and variants change. When new products, missing-code products, or code-relevant product updates need classification, the app generates reviewable code proposals, explains why each code fits, and shows rejected alternatives.

When a new U.S. HTS version becomes active, Catalog Watch checks the exact codes you already use. A surviving code stays unchanged with no proposal usage; an absent code gets one current-version proposal under your normal approval setting.

Start free, then upgrade to Catalog Watch for $29/month with 50 included code proposals per Shopify billing period.

How Catalog Watch works

Watch your catalog

Catalog Watch monitors your active Shopify products for classification health and code-relevant changes.

  • Products missing HS or HTS codes
  • New products that need classification
  • Changed products that may need rechecking
  • Exact U.S. HTS codes after a new tariff version becomes active
  • Product and variant customs fields that need updates

Use code proposals when classification work is needed

A code proposal is used when Tariff Code Compliance generates a new classification recommendation.

  • New product classifications
  • Missing-code backfills
  • Manual rechecks
  • Product updates that may affect classification
  • Current-version replacements when an exact code no longer exists
  • Product-type exemplar classifications

Backfills use code proposals. If your catalog has many missing codes, you can classify products individually or use product-type grouping to reduce the number of proposals needed.

A tariff-version check that keeps an existing exact code creates no proposal and uses none of your proposal allowance. Only a generated replacement is metered. The plan configuration shown in Shopify is always the pricing source of truth. See the verified tariff-update examples.

Example monthly charges

Small catalog

800 watched products

40 code proposals/month

Monthly charge: $29

Catalog with extra products

1,500 watched products

40 code proposals/month

Base Catalog Watch: $29

Extra watched products: 500 x $0.02 = $10

Monthly charge: $39

Catalog with proposal overage

1,000 watched products

150 code proposals/month

Base Catalog Watch: $29

Extra proposals: 100 x $0.50 = $50

Monthly charge: $79

Backfill example

1,000 watched products

500 missing-code products

Catalog Watch includes 50 code proposals.

Remaining backfill proposals: 450 x $0.50 = $225

First-month charge: $29 + $225 = $254

Subsequent months: $29 per month, plus usage

Use product-type grouping to reduce the number of proposals when many products share the same classification.

FAQ

Are Free and Catalog Watch proposals the same quality?

Yes. Free and paid proposals use the same classification engine. The Free plan is limited by quantity, not quality.

What is a watched product?

A watched product is an active Shopify product included in catalog monitoring. Catalog Watch monitors watched products for missing codes, new product creation, product and variant changes, and classification-relevant updates.

What is a code proposal?

A code proposal is a new HS or HTS classification recommendation generated by Tariff Code Compliance. Each proposal includes the recommended code, rationale, and rejected alternatives so your team can review before approving.

Do backfills count as code proposals?

Yes. If products are missing HS or HTS codes, generating classifications for those products uses code proposals. You can reduce backfill cost by grouping similar products by product type and applying one approved classification across matching products.

Does every product update use a code proposal?

No. Catalog Watch monitors product updates, but only code-relevant changes need a new proposal. Inventory-only and bookkeeping updates usually do not require a new HS or HTS code proposal.

Does the app automatically update Shopify?

You choose the operating mode. Manual keeps every proposal in review. Same code can auto-approve a proposal that matches a code you previously approved for that product. All proposals can approve and write every eligible generated proposal back automatically.

See the approval and writeback examples

Does Catalog Watch monitor tariff schedule changes?

Yes. When a new U.S. HTS version becomes active, Catalog Watch automatically checks each eligible product's exact numeric code. If the code still exists, it stays unchanged with no proposal or proposal usage. If it no longer exists, Tariff Code Compliance generates one current-version proposal. Generated proposals count against the 50 included per Shopify billing period, then the configured $0.50 additional-proposal tier applies. Your approval setting still controls Shopify writeback.
