Data Source

• Website: https://www.tariffcommission.gov.ph/tariff-book-2022
• Storage: Google Drive (Chapter PDFs are hosted on Google Drive)
• Chapters: 01-97 (excl. 77 which is reserved)

How It Works

Important Discovery: The tariff book PDFs are hosted on Google Drive, not directly on the government website. The workflow is:

1. Visit https://www.tariffcommission.gov.ph/tariff-book-2022
2. Click a Chapter link → Opens Google Drive file
3. Download PDF from Google Drive
4. Search for HS codes in the PDF

Quick Start (One Command)

Use the unified query tool for the complete workflow:

python3 ~/.codex/skills/ph-hs-code-finder/scripts/query_hs_code.py "<product_name>"

Example:

python3 ~/.codex/skills/ph-hs-code-finder/scripts/query_hs_code.py "hair dryer"

This will:

1. Analyze the product and suggest chapters
2. Open browser to get Google Drive link
3. Download the PDF
4. Search for matching HS codes
5. Display results with source URL

Step-by-Step Workflow

Step 1: Suggest Chapter

First, determine which chapter the product belongs to:

python3 ~/.codex/skills/ph-hs-code-finder/scripts/suggest_chapter.py "<product_name>"

Example:

python3 ~/.codex/skills/ph-hs-code-finder/scripts/suggest_chapter.py "mobile phone charger"
# Output:
# Product: mobile phone charger
# Matched keywords: phone, charger, mobile
# Suggested chapters:
#   1. Chapter 85: Electrical machinery and equipment (score: 30)

Step 2: Download Chapter PDF

Use Playwright to automatically get the Google Drive link and download:

python3 ~/.codex/skills/ph-hs-code-finder/scripts/get_chapter_pdf.py <chapter_number> [output_directory]

Example:

python3 ~/.codex/skills/ph-hs-code-finder/scripts/get_chapter_pdf.py 85 ~/Downloads

What happens:

1. Opens Chrome browser (headed mode)
2. Navigates to tariff book page
3. Clicks the Chapter link
4. Captures Google Drive URL
5. Downloads PDF using curl/wget

Step 3: Search HS Code

Once you have the PDF, search for the product:

python3 ~/.codex/skills/ph-hs-code-finder/scripts/search_hs_code.py \
  <pdf_path> <keyword1> [keyword2] ...

Example:

python3 ~/.codex/skills/ph-hs-code-finder/scripts/search_hs_code.py \
  ~/Downloads/Chapter_85.pdf "hair" "dryer" --source "<gdrive_url>"

If automatic download fails:

• The script will output the Google Drive URL
• User can manually download and provide the file path
• Then run search with --pdf flag
