## Frequently asked questions

### What does customs tariff code 35 cover?

Code 35 covers ALBUMINOIDAL SUBSTANCES; MODIFIED STARCHES; GLUES; ENZYMES. Classification turns on the material, function, and intended use of the goods, not on their trade name.

### What is the duty rate for 35?

TARIC holds no third-country rate of its own for 35. The rate follows from the declarable commodity code beneath it.

### How many digits does 35 have?

35 has two digits and identifies a Harmonised System chapter. A German import declaration requires the eleven-digit commodity code.

### Is there binding tariff information for 35?

The EBTI database currently holds no valid decisions on 35. 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.

### Does customs tariff code 35 change?

35 is currently valid. The Combined Nomenclature is amended every 1 January, so master data should be checked against the current tariff annually.
