The World Trade Organization (WCO) has released a guide, which contains Harmonised System (Commodity Codes) which is intended to allow for the facilitation of relief supplies as well as all goods being traded in order to minimise the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The WCO has provided an indicative list for Covid-19 medical supplies and their classification. This list does not have legal status but is intended to be used as guidance.
The list is available on the FTWonline website.
