This code covers unmanned aircraft designed for passenger transport when their own weight is over 2000 kg. It is for passenger-carrying unmanned aircraft, not the lower-weight category.

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 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 8806 10 90 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.

  1. Match the whole wording A line is its own wording plus the grouping text above it. Read both before you settle on one.

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

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:

  • Andorra
  • San Marino
  • Türkiye
  • European Union
  • Comoros (excluding Mayotte), Madagascar, Mauritius, Seychelles and dependencies and Zimbabwe
  • Botswana, Eswatini, Lesotho, Mozambique and Namibia
  • Western Sahara
  • European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway

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

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