ImportYeti HS Code Scraper — Trade Data by Product Category

Scrape ImportYeti's HS Code Explorer to discover suppliers and track shipments by product category. Enter 2-digit chapter codes, 4-digit heading codes, or 6-digit subheading codes — the actor returns recent bills of lading and aggregate trade statistics directly from ImportYeti's SSR HTML (no browser required).

What you get

For each HS code, the actor emits:

• Summary record (record_type: hs_summary) — aggregate stats: total sea shipments, total weight (kg), total TEU, and database updated date
• Shipment rows (record_type: shipment) — each of the up to 50 most recent bills of lading: supplier name, slug, city, country; arrival date; house and master BOL numbers; weight; quantity; container count; and product description

How to use

Provide HS codes in the HS Codes field. Accepts:

Format	Example
2-digit chapter	84
4-digit heading	8471
6-digit subheading	847130
Full ImportYeti URL	https://www.importyeti.com/hs-codes/8471-automatic-data-processing-machines-and

Use the optional Country Filter field to limit results to a specific origin country (e.g., china, vietnam, germany).

Set Max Items to control the total number of records returned across all HS codes (shipment rows + summary records). Set to 0 for no cap.

Use cases

• Supplier discovery — find who is importing a specific product category into the US
• Tariff exposure analysis — track shipment volumes for HS codes affected by tariff changes
• Market sizing — aggregate import volumes by product category and origin country
• Supply chain intelligence — complements the ImportYeti Bill of Lading Scraper: that actor enriches known companies/suppliers; this actor discovers new ones by product category

Notes

• Up to 50 shipment rows per HS code (ImportYeti free-tier cap)
• The Suppliers/Companies section is client-rendered and not included in results
• Country filter accepts lowercase slugs matching ImportYeti URL scheme (e.g., china, united-states)
• Bare 2-digit chapter codes are resolved via the HS code index before fetching; full slug URLs and 4/6-digit codes are fetched directly
