HS-6 · Subheading

Chapter 07: Edible vegetables
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 071350 when importing or exporting dried broad beans and horse beans. These legumes are often found in bulk shipments or packaged for retail. For example, a shipment containing 500 kg of dried broad beans in 25 kg bags would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers shelled broad beans (Vicia faba var. major) and horse beans (Vicia faba var. equina, Vicia faba var. minor) that have been dried. In contrast, HS-6 071340 applies to other leguminous vegetables that are also dried, but not specifically broad or horse beans.
When classifying your product, ensure that the beans are indeed shelled and dried, as this distinguishes them from fresh or unshelled varieties. If you have dried legumes that are skinned or split, they still fall under this classification.
Consider the end use of these beans; they are commonly used in soups, stews, and as protein sources in vegetarian dishes. This can help clarify their classification if you face any uncertainties.
