🌐 Sino-European HS6 Pivot

The 6-digit Harmonized System (HS6) is universally shared between China's GACC export nomenclature and the European Union's TARIC system. CustomsBridge uses HS6 as a deterministic cross-border pivot to resolve European import tariffs directly from Chinese commercial proformas.
