HS HEADING 0207

Meat and edible offal of poultry; of the poultry of heading no. 0105, (i.e. fowls of the species Gallus domesticus), fresh, chilled or frozen

In plain English

This category covers fresh, chilled, or frozen meat and edible parts from poultry, specifically including chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese, and guinea fowls. The items are sorted by the type of bird and whether they are sold as whole pieces or cut into smaller portions. For ducks and geese, the classification also distinguishes between regular cuts and special fatty livers.

Chapter 02 classification notes

Meat imports are dominated by veterinary-health certification (origin slaughterhouse approval), cold-chain documentation, and BSE/foot-and-mouth disease zoning rules. Most destinations require veterinary-import permits issued by the national veterinary authority before shipment.

Frequent misclassification in this chapter

Cooked / processed / canned meats fall under Chapter 16 (preparations of meat); raw frozen meat stays in Chapter 02. Edible offal (heart, liver, kidneys) under 0206 is sometimes mis-declared as muscle meat.

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.
