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.
- 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.
- Country of origin Trade agreements, sanctions and extra measures can change the treatment of the very same code.
- Current tariff measures Check today's rate, any restrictions or licences, and the quantity customs asks for, with Toldstyrelsen or TARIC.
On an EU import declaration
Pick the 10-digit line that matches the goods.
2 import lines
When these goods are imported into the EU, the declaration needs a 10-digit code. Under 1905 90 20 the EU tariff has 2 lines, each with its own wording.
You or your customs agent pick the line whose wording fits the goods; the last line, "Other", covers what none of the specific wordings describe.
The standard duty rate is the same on every line.
- Match the whole wording A line is its own wording plus the grouping text above it. Read both before you settle on one.
