Meat and edible meat offal
About chapter 02
Chapter 2 covers meat and edible offal from cattle, swine, sheep, goats, horses and poultry, fresh, chilled or frozen. It does not include meat that has been cooked, cured, smoked or otherwise prepared: those preparations fall under chapter 16 instead.
Classification tip: Fresh/chilled and frozen versions of the same cut often carry different subheadings and different import permit requirements, so confirm the product's actual state at the border, not just at origin.

Codes and descriptions follow the WCO six-digit Harmonized System nomenclature. National tariff schedules extend these to 8–13 digits and set the actual duty rate, so confirm the full code for your destination country with your customs broker before filing. To copy a code, hover a row and use the copy button; every code has 0201-style dot notation ready for your commercial invoice.
Chapter 02 FAQ
What does HS code chapter 02 cover?
Chapter 02 of the Harmonized System covers: meat and edible meat offal. It belongs to section I (Live Animals & Animal Products) and contains 10 four-digit headings, 0201–0210.
How many HS codes are in chapter 02?
Chapter 02 contains 10 four-digit headings and 66 six-digit subheadings. Countries subdivide these further (8–13 digits) in their national tariff schedules, so the full national count is larger.
Is HS code 0201 the same in every country?
Yes. The six-digit level of every code in this chapter is harmonised by the World Customs Organization and identical in all member countries. Digits beyond the sixth (for example the US 10-digit HTS or the EU 8-digit CN) are national and set the actual duty rate.
How do I choose the right code within chapter 02?
Work from the four-digit heading down: pick the heading that best matches your product, then the six-digit subheading that matches its material, form or processing. If two codes seem to fit, customs rules (the General Rules of Interpretation) decide, and when in doubt, confirm with your customs broker before filing.
