What HS 0105.13 covers
This HS code covers live young ducks, specifically those weighing not more than 185 grams. This category primarily includes day-old ducklings, which are traded internationally to support the global duck meat and egg industries. The trade in these young birds is vital for farms that specialize in duck production. Logistics involve careful handling, specialized transport, and strict biosecurity protocols to ensure the health and survival of the ducklings during transit. Exporters are often countries with well-established duck breeding programs and hatcheries, supplying both domestic and international markets, particularly in Asia where duck consumption is traditionally high, and in Europe for specialty products.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
