Coconut Green Tea Loose from Germany
Coconut Green Tea Loose is a flavored, unfermented green tea presented in 300g vacuum-sealed bags, which are immediate packings not exceeding 3 kg. The natural coconut essence added to the tea leaves does not alter its essential character as green tea, so it remains classified under heading 09.02. This product qualifies for tariff item 0902.10.90 as 'Other' green tea in small packings, excluding single-serving bags.

Import Tips
• Ensure the coconut essence is a natural flavoring and does not exceed 3% by weight if any binder is used, per section note 1
• Declare the tea as flavored green tea under 0902.10.90; if the coconut flavoring gives the product a mixed condiment character, it may fall under heading 21.03
• Keep supplier documentation on the tea's fermentation process and packing weight to support the classification
