I read in sci.electronics.design that Paul Taylor wrote (in ) about 'fuse types', on Thu, 10 Feb 2005:
Fuse manufacturers' catalogues usually have all the information you require. Google for Schurter, Wickmann, Littelfuse (note spelling), and there are several others.

The good news is that nothing is compulsory.
The bad news is that everything is prohibited.

Most of the responses to date have suggested US fuse suppliers.
Nothing wrong with that - but note that US fuses have very different specs from those specified for International use ( IEC types ).
In the UK you'll want IEC spec fuses not UL. Both the current carry and blowing characteristics are different.
Whilst Bussman etc make fuses to the IEC spec - you should be aware that their info may be more generally US-centric.
Please don't post in HTML btw.
