HS Code 1002Rye

What HS code 1002 covers

Rye is a cereal grain. The Harmonized System is the shared naming list that customs offices use for traded goods. Rye gets its own heading in that list, which keeps it apart from wheat, barley and oats.

The heading sits in the vegetable products group, inside Chapter 10 cereals. You may see it written as HSN code 1002 or HTS code 1002. It is the same heading under a different local name. Each country adds its own extra digits for local rules, but the shared base stays the same.

This tariff classification matters because every shipment of rye needs a code on its customs papers. The code tells the officer what the goods are. It also lets analysts group records for the same product across many countries.

HS 1002 subheadings: 100210 vs 100290

The heading splits into two subheadings. The split depends on one thing only: is the rye seed or not?

• 100210 is rye seed. This is rye grain sold to be planted.
• 100290 is all other rye. This is rye that is not sold as seed, such as grain for food or feed.

How to choose the right rye code

Ask what the rye is for. If the buyer will sow it, use 100210. If not, use 100290. If you are unsure, your national tariff and the customs classification rules give the final answer.

Duty depends on each national tariff, so this page does not list rates. Check them with your own customs authority.

The HS code classifier can help you check where a product belongs. Use the same code on your invoice, your packing list and your customs entry, so the paperwork matches from start to finish.

Rye vs other cereals in Chapter 10

Each major grain has its own heading, so rye is never filed with its neighbours. People often mix them up because rye is grown and sold alongside wheat and barley. Here is where each one belongs:

• 1001: wheat and meslin
• 1003: barley
• 1004: oats
• 1005: maize (corn)
• 1006: rice
• 1007: grain sorghum
• 1008: buckwheat, millet and canary seeds, and other cereals
