HTS heading 0207 is a 4-digit product category for meat and edible offal from poultry covered by heading 0105. It generally includes poultry products such as chicken, turkey, ducks, geese, guinea fowl, and similar poultry, when the goods are fresh, chilled, or frozen. The heading covers both meat and edible organs, but not every poultry preparation or processed food.
To reach the correct 8-digit HTS code, narrow the product by the relevant tariff descriptions—typically the poultry species, the particular cut or type of meat, or whether it is edible offal. The code may also distinguish forms such as whole birds, specific parts, or other product characteristics. Read the full wording of each subheading and verify that the product’s condition and composition match it; a customs broker or classification specialist may be needed for unusual products.
What to check
- Confirm that the product is poultry of heading 0105 and is fresh, chilled, or frozen when entered.
- Identify the species, such as chicken, turkey, duck, goose, or another listed poultry type.
- Determine whether the item is meat, a whole or particular cut, or edible offal, and document that description.
- Check whether the product contains added ingredients, is cooked, prepared, or preserved; such processing may place it outside heading 0207.
- Compare the complete 8-digit tariff description with the commercial invoice, packing list, product specifications, and labeling before entry.

How to find your code in this category
A heading is a product category. To get the exact duty, narrow from this 4-digit heading to a sub-category (usually by material), then open the 8-digit code that matches your product.
Open any code in the tables below to see its exact duty rate, a duty calculator (enter your shipment value → estimated duty and landed cost), the rate-change history chart, and the country-by-country breakdown (including Section 301/232 add-on duties).
Why you have to click in: a single category can contain products with very different duties. The rate depends on the specific product — its material and construction — and on the country of origin, and those only get pinned down at the 8-digit code level. That is why this page points you to codes instead of showing one rate for the whole category.
