6-digit subheadings (2)
Official HS 2022 subheading texts. National tariff schedules subdivide these further (8-10 digit lines) and set the actual duty rates.
Chapter 09 classification notes
Chapter 09 covers significant trade volumes; specialty coffee and tea imports often qualify for FTA preferential treatment. Saffron is one of the most counterfeited Chapter 09 commodities — origin certification matters at customs valuation.
Frequent misclassification in this chapter
Coffee extracts and roasted-and-decaffeinated coffee under heading 2101 (Chapter 21, miscellaneous edible preparations) not 0901. Tea bags are 0902.40 not 2101.
Classification certainty
The 6-digit level shown here is the internationally harmonised layer. Duty rates attach to national 8-10 digit tariff lines, which differ by country — use the duty calculator for lane estimates. For binding certainty, request a ruling from the destination customs authority.
