EU Combined Nomenclature 2023 published

04/11/22

On 31 October 2022 a new version of the Combined Nomenclature for 2023 (also known as “the Tariff”) has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union. The Tariff is used for the classification of the goods for imports and for trade between the EU member states (i.e. Intrastat). The new version of the Tariff shall apply from 1 January 2023.

What does this mean for your business?

In the next paragraph the CN codes subject to changes for 2023 can be found. As mentioned, the Tariff is used for the classification of products. As the changes may have an impact on this classification of your products and therefore impact your business, it is important to verify whether these changes are relevant to business.

It is recommended to timely evaluate the effects of the changes (e.g. change of a customs authorisation which includes specific commodity codes, master data in systems to be updated) to prevent any surprises, delays and incorrect declarations being filed as of 1 January 2023.

Changes in 2023

On an annual basis, Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff is updated by the European Commission. This Annex is commonly known as the EU Combined Nomenclature or simply “the Tariff”.

In the overview opposite the CN codes have been included which have been added to the Tariff of 2023. This year there were no CN codes for which the coverage changed; only new CN code numbers have been added. This concerns products like peaches/nectarines, rice, mineral substances, slag, (compounds of) rare-earth metals, aromatic polycarboxylic acids, coffins, unwrought aluminium, machine tools for working metal, machines for additive manufacturing, static converters, magnets.
