How to read this code
2203.00 is the six-digit HS subheading for beer. 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 prepared foodstuffs, beverages & tobacco lines — check our import guides for your market.
