Sourcing this category from India

HS 0106.39 covers Birds; live, other than birds of prey, Psittaciformes, ostriches and emus (Dromaius novaehollandiae). It is a leaf classification, so it sets the duty line directly for goods that fall under it. Trade in live animals is regional and tightly regulated under sanitary rules, so this code matters mainly for correct classification and health certification.

How to read this code

0106.39 is the six-digit HS subheading for birds. To clear customs your destination country extends it to a full 8–10 digit code and assigns the duty rate. India's preferential trade agreements (UAE CEPA, Australia ECTA, and others) can reduce or zero out that duty on many live animals & animal products lines — check our import guides for your market.
