Reading code 0801

The first two digits (08) place this code in chapter 08 — Edible Fruits and Nuts. As a 4-digit heading it groups a whole product family; 6 and 8-digit codes underneath it get more specific. Remember: you can never invent a shorter code by truncating a longer one — only codes that exist in the official tariff are valid.

Fresh and dried fruits and nuts — coconuts, cashews, almonds, and more. Fresh fruit is generally exempt while dried fruits and nuts are taxed.
