Under the EU-Mercosur Agreement, 91 enter duty-free today and 35 are being phased out (the last ones reach zero on 1 January 2038). Data as of 30 October 2026, from the EU-Mercosur Interim Trade Agreement and the Combined Nomenclature 2026.

Lines covered

The guide takes every line of the Combined Nomenclature in force that starts with these codes, 126 lines in all. Each one has its own sheet.

The duty under the agreement

What each line pays today to enter the European Union from Argentina under the agreement, counted line by line with the same calculation as its sheet.

  • 91lines enter duty-free thanks to the agreement
  • 25lines pay less and go down year by year
  • 10lines have a reduction, but the figure depends on composition or entry price

When they reach zero

The lines that do not enter duty-free in every case (they pay something, the figure depends on composition or the entry price, or the reduction applies only within a quota), by the year the schedule takes the duty under the agreement to zero.

  • 1 January 2030 · 24 lines
  • 1 January 2036 · 5 lines
  • 1 January 2038 · 6 lines

What changes on 1 January 2027

On 1 January 2027 the duty goes down one step on 25 lines. It comes from the next step down on the sheet of each line, with the same calculation.

Line by line

Grouped by heading. The code opens the sheet, with the year-by-year schedule and the source of every figure.
