TARIC additional code
Also called: additional code
A four-character code entered alongside the TARIC code when a measure depends on something other than the product itself, for example the producing company in anti-dumping cases or the composition of processed agricultural goods. Additional codes are listed in TARIC with the measure they trigger.
In practice
Using the wrong additional code, especially a company-specific anti-dumping code, can multiply the duty due or lead to recovery after clearance.
