How to read this code
1521.10 is the six-digit HS subheading for vegetable waxes (other than triglycerides). 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 animal, vegetable & microbial fats & oils lines — check our import guides for your market.
