Iran’s Ministry of Industry, Mine and Trade has notified the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration that tariff code 21069090, covering flavoring agents classified under the “other” description, has been added to the list of goods eligible for percentage-based partial clearance at a rate of 90 percent.

The addition followed a request from several food industry companies for 90 percent clearance of raw materials under this tariff code, given the need to supply intermediate and raw materials for food and pharmaceutical production under current conditions in the country. The General Industries Deputy at the ministry subsequently confirmed the request was approved, and the Import and Export Regulations Office issued the notice to customs specifying that the tariff code, with the description “other,” is covered by percentage clearance for all types of consumption, valid until the approving authority’s decision expires.

Importers of flavoring agents under tariff code 21069090 should confirm the current validity period of the percentage clearance approval with customs authorities before relying on the 90 percent clearance rate, as it remains subject to compliance with applicable rules and regulations.
