Chapter 30: Pharmaceutical products

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 300214 when importing or exporting human blood products, specifically those that are mixed and packaged for retail sale. This includes items like immunological products and antisera sold in measured doses. For example, if you're shipping a box of vials containing human immunoglobulin for therapeutic use, this code applies.

This code is distinct from HS-6 300215, which covers similar products but specifically focuses on those not mixed or packaged for retail. If you're dealing with bulk human blood fractions or immunological products intended for further processing, consider that code instead.

In this context, 300214 captures products that are ready for consumer use, such as pre-measured doses of vaccines or antisera. If your shipment includes a retail pack of antibodies for diagnostic purposes, this is the correct classification.

When classifying your goods, ensure you understand the packaging and intended use. Products like human serum albumin, if sold in retail-ready vials, would fall under this HS-6 line, while larger bulk quantities might not.
