These are ready mixes in powder or paste form for baking bread, cakes, biscuits, pizza, pancakes and other bakery products. Classification requires confirming that the product is a mix intended for baking products under heading 1905. Finished bakery products are classified under heading 1905 codes. Plain flour without additions is classified in Chapter 11.
Food safety and labelling
Baking mixes are subject to general food safety requirements of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 and labelling Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011. Allergen declaration is mandatory including cereal gluten, eggs, milk, nuts and sesame. Food additives must be authorised under Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008. Nutritional labelling is mandatory for pre-packed products. Imported products must meet contaminant and mycotoxin limits.
Trade and import
Importing baking mixes requires TRACES NT notification, commercial documents and health certificates. Border controls may include documentary and physical checks. Major suppliers include European countries, USA and Turkey. Transport requires moisture protection. Packaging must be labelled in the destination country's language.
Bakery mixes CN 1901 20 - EU tariff classification
