Meat and edible offal, of geese, cuts and offal, excluding fatty livers, frozen.
Classification of frozen goose meat under HS 0207.55
Frozen goose meat, specifically cuts and offal, is classified under HS code 0207.55. Chapter 02 of the Harmonized System covers meat and edible meat offal. Heading 0207 is dedicated to the meat and edible offal of poultry (chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, and guinea fowls), fresh, chilled, or frozen. The classification is structured first by the species of poultry and then by the state (fresh/chilled vs. frozen) and the cut (whole vs. parts). Subheading 0207.55 specifically identifies frozen cuts and offal of geese. This excludes whole geese (which are 0207.52) and fatty livers (which are 0207.53). The classification relies on the product being raw and preserved solely by freezing. If the meat has been seasoned, cooked, or further processed, it would transition to Chapter 16. This code is vital for the trade of specific goose parts like breasts (magret) or legs, which are popular in various international cuisines.

Codes often confused with 0207.55
Common mistake. A common misclassification occurs with HS code 0207.53, which is reserved specifically for fatty livers (foie gras) of geese, even if they are frozen. Another frequent error is using 0207.54, which is for fresh or chilled goose cuts. Importers must also be careful not to use 1602.39, which is for prepared or preserved poultry meat; if the goose meat is marinated, spiced, or cooked before freezing, it must be classified under 1602.39. Finally, whole frozen geese must be classified under 0207.52, not 0207.55.

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).
