Frozen Coca Leaves from Germany
Frozen Coca Leaves are coca leaves preserved by freezing to retain alkaloid content for pharmaceutical extraction or traditional medicinal preparations. They are classified under tariff item 1211.30.00 because the heading explicitly includes coca leaf in frozen form, and their use in pharmacy aligns with the item's scope for plants used primarily in such applications.
