Both categories contain the same results, but we have divided them into these two separate categories for ease of use. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is the standard used in North America (The US, Canada, and Mexico). The Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System (HS) is used in all other countries developed and maintained by the World Customs Organization (WCO).
