HS code for Goose meat: 0207.54
Meat and edible offal, of geese, cuts and offal, excluding fatty livers, fresh or chilled.
Classification of goose meat under HS 0207.54
Goose meat, specifically fresh or chilled cuts and offal excluding fatty livers, is classified under HS code 0207.54. This classification falls under Chapter 2 of the Harmonized System, which covers meat and edible meat offal. Heading 0207 is dedicated to meat and edible offal of poultry of heading 0105 (which includes chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, and guinea fowls), fresh, chilled, or frozen. The structure of heading 0207 is further divided by the type of bird and the state of the meat. The 50 series (0207.5x) specifically addresses meat from geese. Subheading 0207.54 is designated for cuts and offal that are fresh or chilled. A critical distinction in this classification is the exclusion of fatty livers (foie gras), which are classified separately due to their distinct market value and culinary application. The classification process requires verifying that the product has not been frozen, as frozen goose cuts would shift the classification to a different subheading. Furthermore, the meat must be edible offal or cuts rather than the whole bird to satisfy the requirements of 0207.54. Chilled meat is defined as meat that has been cooled to a temperature generally between 0 and 4 degrees Celsius without being frozen.

Codes often confused with 0207.54
Common mistake. The most common misclassification occurs between fresh/chilled cuts (0207.54) and frozen cuts, which fall under 0207.55. Additionally, whole geese (not cut into pieces) are classified under 0207.51 if fresh or chilled. Another significant distinction is made for fatty livers (foie gras), which are classified under 0207.43 for ducks or 0207.53 for geese in some jurisdictions, though specifically, 0207.53 is for whole geese. It is vital to check the specific subheading for fatty livers, which is 0207.53 for fresh/chilled whole geese or 0207.43/0207.53 depending on the specific poultry type and state.

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).
