Before you use the code

Check the facts that sit outside the code

The code can be right while what you pay still changes, because of where the goods come from, when they arrive, or extra EU measures.

  1. The product and its form Check that your product really matches this description, including what it is made of and the form it arrives in.
  2. Country of origin Trade agreements, sanctions and extra measures can change the treatment of the very same code.
  3. Current tariff measures Check today's rate, any restrictions or licences, and the quantity customs asks for, with Toldstyrelsen or TARIC.

On an import declaration

0602 90 46 00

When these goods are imported into the EU, the declaration uses the 10-digit form 0602904600: this code with 00 added. There is no further split under it.

Exports from the EU and Intrastat normally use the 8-digit code as it is.

EU tariff data of Sept. 13, 2026.

Rates, origin and documents

Read the signals first. Open only the ones you want to check.

Besides the ordinary duty, the EU records these kinds of measure against this code. They are listed as signals only: whether one applies to your goods can depend on where they come from, who produced them, the exact product and the documents you present. No amounts are worked out here.

Data of Sept. 1, 2026

Customs also asks for the quantity in number of items

Required

The declaration asks for the actual quantity in number of items. It replaces neither the net mass nor the value: those come on top.

Example: if the quantity in number of items is 24, the declaration carries the number 24 in that field.

Lower duty for goods from some countries

Possible

Preferential rates exist for goods originating in:

  • San Marino
  • Comoros (excluding Mayotte), Madagascar, Mauritius, Seychelles and dependencies and Zimbabwe
  • Botswana, Eswatini, Lesotho, Mozambique and Namibia
  • Western Sahara
  • Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama
  • Andorra
  • Ivory Coast
  • Chile
  • +41 origins

These rates apply to Economic Partnership Agreements; CARIFORUM except Haiti; GSP-EBA (Special arrangement for the least-developed countries - Everything But Arms); OCTs (Overseas Countries and Territories); GSP+ (incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance); GSP - General arrangements except Kenya.

Whether you can use one depends on the origin rules for the goods and on the documentation you can show.

Restrictions and paperwork

Important

Import restrictions are recorded for goods originating in:

  • any country except Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland
  • Ukraine
  • any country except Switzerland

The EU records document conditions on this code. What customs may ask for depends on where the goods come from, exactly what the product is and the customs procedure.

Proof of origin 2 conditions

If you claim a lower rate for goods from a country the EU has a trade agreement with, customs asks for proof of origin, for example a EUR.1 certificate or an origin declaration.

Show the EU's own wording for these conditions
  • Invoice declaration or origin declaration made out by any exporter on invoice or any other commercial document
  • Movement certificate EUR.1

Sanctions and restricted regions 2 conditions

Some conditions come from EU sanctions rules. They matter when the goods are linked to a country or region the EU restricts trade with.

Show the EU's own wording for these conditions
  • Goods not originating from or destined to Crimea or Sevastopol (Articles 2 and 2b.1 of Council Regulation (EU) No 692/2014)
  • Goods not originating from or not destined for the non-government controlled areas of Ukraine in the oblasts of Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia

Product controls and permits 5 conditions

Depending on the exact product, customs may ask for a licence, a permit or a control certificate before the goods are released.

Show the EU's own wording for these conditions
  • Certificate of inspection for organic products
  • Common Health Entry Document for Plants and Plant Products (CHED-PP) (as set out in Part 2, Section C of Annex II to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1715 (OJ L 261))
  • Declared goods do not belong to the Washington Convention (CITES)
  • Presentation of the required "CITES" certificate
  • Permit for invasive alien species in accordance with Art. 8 of Regulation (EU) 1143/2014

Show the EU's own wording for these conditions
  • Goods not concerned by Regulation (EU) 2018/848 (organic products)
  • The declared goods are not concerned by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1141

Other conditions 2 conditions

These conditions match none of the groups above. Whether customs asks for one depends on the goods, where they come from and the customs procedure.

Show the EU's own wording for these conditions
  • Goods with third country origin coming from Switzerland, according to the relevant EU legislation.
  • Exemption for products intended for scientific purposes in accordance with Article 48(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031
