Sourcing this category from India

HS 0506.10 covers Animal products; ossein and bones treated with acid. It is a leaf classification, so it sets the duty line directly for goods that fall under it. India supplies animal-origin industrial inputs such as bone meal, horn and hair, though volumes here are niche. India exported $11.4M under this code worldwide in 2024, about 4.2% of all Chapter 05 exports, ranking #1 of 2 lines in its heading (UN Comtrade).

How to read this code

0506.10 is the six-digit HS subheading for animal products. 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.
