About this HS Code
HS Code 2208 covers undenatured ethyl alcohol of less than 80% volume and spirits, liqueurs, and other spirituous beverages. The classification includes specific subcategories for brandy (2208.20), whisky (2208.30), rum (2208.40), gin (2208.50), vodka (2208.60), liqueurs (2208.70), and other spirits (2208.90). This high-value division represents significant agricultural value-addition through distillation and aging processes. Major exporters include United Kingdom, France, and USA. Products range from mass-produced spirits to luxury aged expressions with significant price premiums. International trade faces complex regulatory structures including proof minimums for category classification, certificate of age requirements, and counterfeit prevention systems for premium brands.
