Meursing Code
A meursing code is a unique identification that is used to determine import tariffs on certain commodities when trading with the European Union (EU). This four-digit code is based on the exact constituent composition of a product.
Customs authorities use a reference table to ascertain the correct Meursing code. They then combine this code with the regular commodity code to determine the exact import duty rate.
These codes are essential for the goods that are considered at high risk of duty evasion, but they may also be required for certain items eligible for duty exemptions.
