Meat and edible offal, of ducks, cuts and offal, excluding fatty livers, fresh or chilled.
Classification of chilled duck offal under HS 0207.44
Chilled duck offal is classified under HS code 0207.44 according to the General Rules for the Interpretation of the Harmonized System. This classification is determined by Chapter 2, which encompasses meat and edible meat offal. Heading 0207 specifically addresses meat and edible offal of poultry belonging to the species Gallus domesticus, ducks, geese, turkeys, and guinea fowls. Within this heading, the 0207.4x series is dedicated to ducks. Subheading 0207.44 is designated for cuts and offal of ducks that are fresh or chilled, excluding fatty livers (foie gras). The classification relies on the state of preservation—fresh or chilled—and the specific anatomical parts of the bird that are not the primary carcass cuts but are considered edible offal. Proper documentation must specify that the product has been maintained at a temperature above freezing to qualify as chilled rather than frozen.

Codes often confused with 0207.44
Common mistake. A frequent error in classification involves confusing 0207.44 with 0207.43, which is reserved specifically for fatty livers (foie gras) of ducks. Additionally, if the offal is frozen rather than chilled, it must be classified under 0207.45. Importers also occasionally mistake these items for 0504.00, which covers guts, bladders, and stomachs of animals; however, edible poultry offal is specifically directed to heading 0207 by the Chapter 2 notes.

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).
