What does CN 1804 cover?
CN 1804 covers cocoa butter, fat and oil. Because it is a processed cocoa product, the due-diligence evidence still needs to reach back to cocoa production origin.
Traceability issue
Processing does not replace the need for upstream origin evidence. Keep supplier, batch and farm information linked through processors.
Important: This is a screening page, not a customs-classification ruling. Confirm the exact current Annex I wording and your product classification before relying on the result.
What to do next
- Confirm the exact CN / HS classification.
- Check whether the current Annex I entry is direct or marked “ex”.
- Identify the relevant commodity and production origin.
- Collect geolocation and supplier evidence.
- Apply the applicable due-diligence workflow.
