BTI (Binding Tariff Information) is an official EU customs decision confirming the classification of goods. Valid for 3 years, binding across all EU member states.
Tariff classification and scope of CN code 330420
CN code 330420 covers eye make-up preparations classified under Chapter 33 of the Combined Nomenclature. Classification is based on chemical composition, commercial form, and intended use. Notes to Chapter 33 specify the scope of individual subheadings. Customs clearance requires proper product identification based on technical documentation, analytical certificates, and commercial specifications. Import of such products into the EU requires compliance with tariff and non-tariff requirements under EU regulations. Potential trade policy measures such as anti-dumping duties or tariff quotas that may affect import costs should also be considered.
EU import regulatory requirements
Import of goods under CN code 330420 into the EU is subject to the REACH Regulation (EC No 1907/2006) and CLP Regulation (EC No 1272/2008). The importer must ensure ECHA registration of each substance. A Safety Data Sheet (SDS) compliant with Regulation (EU) 2020/878 is required. These products may also be subject to the Cosmetics Regulation (EC) 1223/2009 and CPNP notification. CLP labelling must include hazard pictograms, signal words, H and P statements. Transport is subject to ADR/RID regulations. These substances are not subject to CBAM. Storage must comply with environmental and occupational health and safety requirements.
Trade aspects and customs documentation
Customs declarations for imports under CN code 330420 should include full specification, CAS numbers, commercial form, and intended use. Importers may benefit from tariff preferences under EU trade agreements or the GSP system. Rate verification in the TARIC database is recommended before each transaction. Export may require verification under the Dual-Use Export Control Regulation (EU) 2021/821. Quality control should include chemical composition testing, specification compliance, and safety requirements verification.
EU Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009
Importing cosmetics under CN code 3304 20 (Eye make-up preparations) is governed by Regulation (EC) 1223/2009. Every cosmetic product placed on the EU market must be notified via the CPNP portal and have a designated Responsible Person based in the EU. A Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR) is mandatory. The composition must comply with lists of allowed, prohibited, and restricted substances (Annexes II-VI). Labels require an INCI list, durability date (PAO/BBD), country of origin, and Responsible Person details. Animal testing is prohibited in the EU.
Frequently asked questions
What are the main applications of products under CN code 330420?
Eye make-up preparations are used primarily in the cosmetics industry and beauty sector. Specific use depends on the composition and commercial form. Tariff classification is not dependent on end use but on objective product characteristics at the time of customs clearance.
Does import of these products require special permits?
Generally, import does not require separate import permits beyond standard REACH and CLP obligations. For SVHC substances or those subject to REACH authorisation, additional permits may be required. Substance status should be verified in the ECHA database.
How to verify correct classification under code 330420?
Classification can be confirmed by obtaining Binding Tariff Information (BTI) from the customs authority. A BTI is valid for 3 years and binds customs authorities in all EU Member States. Consulting a customs agency or tariff advisor is also recommended.
Is CPNP notification required for cosmetics CN 3304 20?
Yes, every cosmetic imported into the EU (CN 3304 20) must be notified via the CPNP portal before being placed on the market. Notification requires INCI composition, EU Responsible Person details, CPSR safety report, and label.
