Sourcing this category from India
HS 3504.00 covers Peptones and their derivatives; other protein substances and their derivatives n.e.c. or included, hide powder, whether or not chromed. It is a leaf classification, so it sets the duty line directly for goods that fall under it. India supplies industrial gelatin, casein, dextrins and enzyme preparations to food, pharma and adhesive industries. India exported $36.5M under this code worldwide in 2024, about 9.3% of all Chapter 35 exports, ranking #1 of 1 lines in its heading (UN Comtrade).
How to read this code
3504.00 is the six-digit HS subheading for peptones and their derivatives. 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 chemicals & allied industries lines — check our import guides for your market.
In India this same number is called the HSN code (350400): GST registration, invoices and e-way bills all classify goods by HSN, and the applicable GST rate is notified against the 4–8 digit HSN — so Indian suppliers will quote you HSN 350400 for goods under this heading.
