Before you use the code

Check the facts that sit outside the code

This is the catch-all under 6506 99: it covers what the sibling codes below do not.

This is the remainder for other headgear in the parent group that is not named by the sibling groups listed here.

6506 99 10 Hats and other headgear, of fur felt or of felt of wool and fur, made from the hat bodies, hoods or plateaux of heading 6501, whether or not lined or trimmed (excl. knitted or crocheted or made up from lace, made by assembling strips or pieces of felt, and toy and carnival headgear)

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.

Possible

Preferential rates exist for goods originating in:

Andorra
San Marino
Türkiye
European Union
Comoros (excluding Mayotte), Madagascar, Mauritius, Seychelles and dependencies and Zimbabwe

Sanctions and restricted regions 2 conditions
