What HS code 2101 covers
Heading 2101 is for coffee, tea and mate that have been turned into an extract, an essence or a concentrate. It also takes preparations that use these products as their base. Roasted chicory and other roasted coffee substitutes belong here too, along with their extracts.
In short, it is the heading for products made from coffee, tea or mate, not for the plain beans or leaves. It sits inside Chapter 21, miscellaneous edible preparations, which is a group of foods that are made up or processed rather than sold raw.
Some traders say HSN code 2101. It is the same heading. The first six digits follow the Harmonized System, which customs offices around the world share. Many countries then add more digits for their own tariff lines, so always check the full national code before you file.
HS 2101 subheadings: 210111, 210112, 210120, 210130
The heading splits into four six-digit codes. Each one answers a simple question about what is in the product.
- 210111: coffee extracts, essences and concentrates, and preparations built on them or on coffee. Start here for most coffee extract trade.
- This is the code for the made-up product rather than the extract itself.
- 210120: the tea and mate version.
- 210130: roasted chicory and other roasted coffee substitutes, plus extracts, essences and concentrates made from them.
How to choose the right 2101 code
Work through three short steps.
First, name the main ingredient. If it is coffee, look at 210111 and 210112. If it is tea or mate, go to 210120. If it is roasted chicory or another coffee substitute, go to 210130.
Second, decide what form the product is in. A finished preparation that has coffee or a coffee extract as its base points to 210112. The two descriptions are close, so read your country's tariff notes for the exact line.
Third, test the result with the HS code classifier. It helps you check a product against the code before you ship.
How 2101 differs from other Chapter 21 headings
If your product is not built on coffee, tea, mate or chicory, it probably belongs next door. Here is where to look.
Yeasts and baking powders are under heading 2102.
Anything edible that fits none of these is covered by heading 2106, food preparations not elsewhere specified or included. Use that one last, only when a more exact heading does not fit.
