HS code guide

HS code for tea

The usual six-digit HS code for tea is 0902.30.

Watch out: Green tea is 0902.10/0902.20; herbal infusions are often 1211.90 or 2106.90.

Extra EU rules: Food sent to EU consumers must meet EU food law; check labelling and contaminant limits.

What this means for EU orders

Since 1 July 2026, parcels worth €150 or less sent to EU consumers pay a flat €3 customs duty per item, where an item is goods sharing one tariff classification. Several of the same tea in one order usually count once (€3). Add a different kind of product and it is another €3.

From 1 November 2026 the declaration also needs product identifiers: your SKU, a manufacturer reference, and a barcode (GTIN/EAN) if the product has one. Handmade goods without a barcode are declared with the "no standard identifier" code.

Where to put the code

• Shopify: on each product under Customs information, or in bulk via Settings → Taxes and duties → Duties and import taxes → Product information → Update with CSV.
• Etsy: on the customs form when you buy a shipping label, or in your label software's product settings.
• WooCommerce: in your shipping or customs plugin's product field.
