Frequently asked questions
What does customs tariff code 0102 cover?
Code 0102 covers Rinder, lebend. Classification turns on the material, function, and intended use of the goods, not on their trade name.
What is the duty rate for 0102?
TARIC holds no third-country rate of its own for 0102. The rate follows from the declarable commodity code beneath it.
What is the HS code for 0102?
The first six digits form the HS code: 0102. Those are uniform worldwide, while the further digits carry the EU Combined Nomenclature and the national subdivision.
How many digits does 0102 have?
0102 has four digits and identifies a Harmonised System heading. A German import declaration requires the eleven-digit commodity code.
Where does 0102 sit in the tariff?

Is there binding tariff information for 0102?
The EBTI database currently holds no valid decisions on 0102. Comparable cases are found through the parent heading instead.
What happens if the customs tariff code is wrong?
An incorrect code leads to post-clearance recovery of duty and import VAT, delays at clearance, and a penalty where it repeats. A classification with documented reasoning can be defended in an audit.
Is 0102 in scope of the EUDR?
Yes. 0102 appears in Annex I of the EU deforestation regulation (commodity cattle). The Annex entry is narrower than the code, so only part of it is in scope. A due diligence statement and geolocation data for the plots of production are required.
Does customs tariff code 0102 change?
0102 is currently valid. The Combined Nomenclature is amended every 1 January, so master data should be checked against the current tariff annually.
