HS Code 230330

HS code 230330 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Residues of starch manufacture and similar residues, beetpulp, bagasse and other waste of sugar manufacture, brewing or distilling dregs and waste, whether or not in the form of pellets : Brewing or distilling dregs and waste". The first two digits (23) are the chapter — Residues and waste from the food industries; prepared animal fodder — and digits 3-4 (2303) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.

Common products classified under 230330 include brewers grains, distillers grains, spent grain, brewing dregs, distillery waste and similar items matching brewing or distilling dregs and waste. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.

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.

The first 6 digits (230330) 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.

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.
