Questions
HS code 200540: common questions
What is HS code 200540?
HS code 200540 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Other vegetables prepared or preserved otherwise than by vinegar or acetic acid, not frozen, other than products of heading 2006 : Peas (Pisum sativum)". The first two digits (20) are the chapter — Preparations of vegetables, fruit, nuts or other parts of plants — and digits 3-4 (2005) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 200540?
Common products classified under 200540 include canned peas, garden peas, sweet peas, processed peas, frozen peas, petit pois and similar items matching peas. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 200540?
Duty is set by the destination country, not by the 6-digit HS code alone. Start from the official tariff of your market — USITC HTS (US), TARIC / Access2Markets (EU), GOV.UK Trade Tariff (UK), CBSA (Canada), ABF (Australia) or Singapore Customs — and look up the full national code with China as the country of origin.
Is HS code 200540 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (200540) are the same worldwide under the WCO Harmonized System. Beyond that, each country extends the code (HTS in the US, TARIC in the EU, etc.) and sets its own duty and tax rates.
Can I trust the HS code a 1688 supplier gives me?
Treat a supplier-provided code as a clue, not a final classification. It can be incomplete, China-export-specific, or mismatched to your destination's rules. Verify against the official tariff and your product's actual material and use.
