The Tariff of 1832 was a protectionist tariff in the United States. It was passed as a reduced tariff to remedy the conflict created by the tariff of 1828, but it was still deemed unsatisfactory by southerners and other groups hurt by high tariff rates. Southern opposition to this tariff and its predecessor, the Tariff of Abominations, caused the Nullification Crisis involving South Carolina. The tariff was later lowered down to 35 percent, a reduction of 10 percent, to pacify these objections. This was still not satisfactory, and the Tariff of 1833 resulted.

The Harmonized System (HS) classification is an international standardized system for classifying goods for customs and trade purposes. It is used to categorize products based on their unique characteristics for tariff determination and statistical purposes in international trade.
The most important element in the regulation of the HTS, or Harmonized Tariff Schedule, is the accurate classification of goods.
