Product caveats

Questions the HS/CN code cannot answer alone.

Is the product made entirely from material that has completed its lifecycle and would otherwise be discarded as waste?If yes: out of scope

By-products of a manufacturing process do not benefit from this exception — if the process used material that was not waste, the product stays in scope.

Annex I introductory paragraph; Directive 2008/98/EC Art. 3(1)
Is this product bamboo-based?If yes: out of scope

Chapters 47 and 48 have no separate CN code for bamboo (apart from 4706 30, already excluded). The code alone cannot settle this.

Annex I, Chapters 47 and 48 exception: 'bamboo-based ... products'
Is this product a recovered (waste and scrap) product?If yes: out of scope

Since Delegated Regulation (EU) 2026/2102, products derived from recovered (waste and scrap) products are excluded too — paper made from recovered fibre included.

Annex I, Chapters 47 and 48 exception: 'recovered (waste and scrap) products'
Is it a sample of negligible value and quantity used only to solicit orders, or a product sent for examination or testing that is used up, destroyed or returned?If yes: out of scopeDelegated Regulation (EU) 2026/2102, Annex (5), table note to 'Relevant products'
Is it a used or second-hand product?If yes: out of scopeDelegated Regulation (EU) 2026/2102, Annex (6)(u), (x), (z), (dd)–(zz)
Is it single-use packing used exclusively to support, protect or carry another product made available on the market or exported, and presented with that product?If yes: out of scopeDelegated Regulation (EU) 2026/2102, Annex (6)(bb), (ff), (pp), (qq), (ww)
Is it packing clearly suitable for repeated use, used exclusively to support, protect or carry another product presented with it?If yes: out of scope

Excluded from the moment it is used for that purpose; its first placing on the market as packing is still in scope.

Delegated Regulation (EU) 2026/2102, Annex (6)(pp), (qq), (ww)
Is it correspondence, or marketing or information material, exclusively accompanying another product or supplied free of charge?If yes: out of scopeDelegated Regulation (EU) 2026/2102, Annex (6)(ww)
