Offal, edible, of sheep, goats, horses, asses, mules or hinnies, fresh or chilled.
Classification of fresh goat offal under HS 0206.80
Fresh goat offal is classified under HS code 0206.80. Chapter 2 of the Harmonized System nomenclature covers meat and edible meat offal. Heading 0206 specifically addresses edible offal of bovine animals, swine, sheep, goats, horses, asses, mules, or hinnies, whether fresh, chilled, or frozen. The subheading 0206.80 is a residual category for \"other\" edible offal that is fresh or chilled, which includes offal from both sheep and goats. Edible offal includes internal organs such as the liver, heart, kidneys, tongue, and lungs, as well as other edible parts like feet, tails, and brains. To fall under this specific code, the product must be fit for human consumption and must be in a fresh or chilled state (maintained at a temperature generally between 0°C and 4°C). The classification is determined by the species of the animal and the method of preservation. Because goats and sheep are grouped together in many subheadings of Chapter 2, 0206.80 serves as the standard code for their fresh edible internal parts.

Codes often confused with 0206.80
Common mistake. Fresh goat offal is often misclassified under HS code 0206.90, which is the category for frozen offal of sheep or goats. The distinction between chilled (0206.80) and frozen (0206.90) is vital for customs compliance. Additionally, it may be confused with 0504.00, which covers guts, bladders, and stomachs of animals. However, if those parts are intended for human consumption and sold as meat products, they are generally classified in Chapter 2, whereas 0504 is often used for skins or casings.

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).
