1 · Classification
The product in the three nomenclatures
This sheet is built on the EU tariff line 2925 29 00, which is the code the importer declares in the European Union. In Argentina there are 10 NCM lines under the same 6 digits; the exporter's product is one of them. The classification should be confirmed by a customs broker.

Importing this product from Europe into Argentina
The agreement also lowers what Argentina charges on European goods. Appendix 2-A-2 mirrors the one used in the rest of this sheet. It sets the duty Argentina charges on EU goods entering the country, and lowers it on the same timetable. For an EU supplier selling this product to Argentina, this is the duty that applies.

How this line was reached. The annex writes its list in NCM 2012, while imports are declared in the edition in force. This line did not change between the two editions (the official correlation tables do not list it). This EU line corresponds to more than one Argentine code, each with its own line. Look for the declared one in the table. All of this covers only the duty. If the purchase falls within a quota, an import licence is also needed (it is below, in the authorisations block). What other Argentine agencies require for entry is below, as the VUCE publishes it. Which ones apply depends on the SIM subdivision declared, set by the customs broker.
Argentine agencies involved in the import
The duty comes from the agreement, the rest is required by each agency. The VUCE assigns 10 interventions of other agencies to the import of this position. Each one is shown with the agency’s own text, in Spanish and unabridged, and with the conditions under which it applies. Several only apply in certain cases (wooden packaging, used goods, goods for consumption), and each one says so. Where the origin changes something, each one also states what applies to goods from the EU.

Year-by-year table and how it is calculated
| From | Stage | Ad valorem | Specific (€) | Applies |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 May 2026 | 1 of 5 (year 0) | 5.2% | — | Preferential |
| 1 January 2027 | 2 of 5 | 3.9% | — | Preferential |
| 1 January 2028 | 3 of 5 | 2.6% | — | Preferential |
| 1 January 2029 | 4 of 5 | 1.3% | — | Preferential |
| 1 January 2030 | 5 of 5 | 0% | — | Duty-free |
How it is calculated. Category 4 eliminates the duty in 5 equal stages: the first on 1 May 2026 and the others each 1 January. This is stage 1 of 5, so 80% of the base rate is paid. It reaches zero on 1 January 2030.
Additional refund. Certified organic products, products bearing the Alimentos Argentinos una elección natural seal and products with a registered designation of origin or geographical indication get an additional 0.5% (Decree 1341/2016, Arts. 3 to 5, maintained by Art. 11 of Decree 557/2023). They do not add up: a product that meets more than one condition still gets 0.5% (Resolution 90-E/2017, Art. 9), and each condition is proven with a certificate per shipment (Arts. 1 and 2).
On the Argentine side. Today's export duty is set by Decree 305/2025, Art. 1 and Annex (IF-2025-37185796-APN-SSPI#MEC), and it is the rate the VUCE applies (checked on 17 October 2026).
Duty savings calculator
EU import duty is calculated on the customs value, which in practice is the CIF value (goods plus freight and insurance to the EU port). Enter what you export in a year, in euros or in dollars.
Year by year, until it reaches zero
At these amounts, from this year to 2030 you save €19,067 in total. From 1 January 2030 it enters duty-free and you save €6,500 a year.
| Year | Saving that year | Cumulative | Duty | You pay with the agreement |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026today8 months | €867 | €867 | 5.2% | €3,467 |
| 2027 | €2,600 | €3,467 | 3.9% | €3,900 |
| 2028 | €3,900 | €7,367 | 2.6% | €2,600 |
| 2029 | €5,200 | €12,567 | 1.3% | €1,300 |
| 2030 | €6,500 | €19,067 | Duty-free | €0 |
Each row assumes you export the amounts entered every year and that the MFN duty stays as it is today, though the EU may change it.
Year 0 of the agreement runs from 1 May 2026 to 31 December 2026, so it counts 8 of the 12 months of the amounts entered.
Only have the FOB value? Estimate the customs value
The EU customs value is, in practice, the CIF value (FOB plus freight and insurance to the EU port). Enter the three amounts and carry the result up.
Estimated customs value: €4,500
3 · Tariff-rate quota and access
This line has no tariff-rate quota
The agreement opens no tariff-rate quota (TRQ) for this line. The preference therefore applies to every shipment, with no volume limit and no quota procedure.
Where to check it
- Section B of Annex 2-A lists the 23 quotas the European Union opens for Mercosur. None covers this line.
| Period | Volume | Status |
|---|
If the product may fall under one of them, write to us and we will review it.
4 · Rules of origin
Whether the product qualifies as originating
To benefit from the preference the product has to be originating. The applicable rule is the one for 2905.49 – 2942.00, which requires that one of the options it gives be met; not all are needed. Answer the questions to see whether the product qualifies.
Materials questionnaire
Only the questions the case needs are shown. The result applies the Annex 3-B rule for this line.
Check the materials one by one with the origin assistant, with their tariff code and their share of the price.
The rule as published, the tolerance and the proof of origin
The rule, as published in the agreement: «CTSH; A chemical reaction, isomer separation or biotechnological processing is undergone; or MaxNOM 50 % (EXW).»
Tolerance. Article 3.5 tolerates materials that do not meet the rule up to 10% of the ex-works price.
Cumulation. The agreement allows bilateral cumulation: originating materials of the other Party count as originating (Chapter 3 of the iTA).
How it is proven. Origin is proven with the exporter's statement on origin (Annex 3-C). At the start, the transitional certificate of origin of Annex 3-D also applies (notice 2026/875).
Edition. Annex 3-B is written in the 2017 Harmonized System and this sheet uses the edition in force. At four and six digits they almost always match. If the product changed heading between editions, the rule should be confirmed with the customs broker.
For now the certificate of origin is still accepted. Until 1 May 2029 the European Union also accepts the traditional certificate of origin, besides the exporter's own statement on origin. In the Spanish text: «Durante un período no superior a 3 (tres) años a partir de la fecha de entrada en vigor del presente Acuerdo, la Unión Europea aceptará también como declaración de origen un «certificado de origen» que indique que los productos importados en la Unión Europea cumplen los requisitos de origen establecidos en el presente Acuerdo.» (iTA, Annex 3-D, paragraph 1). The period may be extended by 2 more years at Mercosur's request.
5 · Health, technical and labelling requirements
What the product must meet to enter the EU
The product is on the list of goods the European Union controls at the border, so it enters through a border control post and with an official certificate. It is a procedure to complete, not a prohibition, but without it the consignment is not cleared, even at zero duty. The Commission's portal (Access2Markets) assigns 4 EU product requirements to this line (technical, labelling or marketing rules). It assigns them to the whole line, and the table lists each one with its act and the link to check whether it applies to the product.
- SPSOfficial control at an EU border control postConfirmedmust be met before shipmentThe consignment must enter through an approved border control post, be pre-notified in TRACES with a common health entry document (CHED) and travel with the official certificate that applies.

6 · Authorisations and registrations
What must be approved before exporting
There are two gates, in this order. First the country, since the European Union only admits products of animal origin from countries whose control plan it has approved, and Argentina is approved for 12 of 13 categories. Then the plant, which must be approved in Argentina and, for most products of animal origin, appear on the list the Commission publishes.
- Third-country listArgentina is on the list of authorised countriesConfirmedthe country is authorisedThe Commission has approved Argentina's control plan for Bovine, Ovine/caprine, Equine, Poultry, Aquaculture (16), Milk, Eggs, Rabbit, Wild game, Farmed game, Honey, Casings. The category of the product should be confirmed with the customs broker, because the annex does not express them by tariff code.
- No approved planCategories for which Argentina is NOT on the listConfirmedcheck whether it is the category of the productPorcine. A product in any of these cannot enter the European Union today, even at zero duty and with an establishment approved in Argentina.

7 · Cross-cutting EU regulations
EUDR, CBAM and safeguards
These are the rules that stop a shipment for reasons unrelated to the duty. Neither of the two covers this line, according to the list of codes in the annex of each regulation.
EUDR · deforestation
Prohibits placing on the EU market products linked to deforestation. It covers seven commodities (cattle, cocoa, coffee, oil palm, rubber, soya and wood). It does not cover this line, because it is not in the list of codes of Annex I.
Source: Regulation (EU) 2023/1115, Annex ICBAM · carbon border adjustment
Charges at the EU border for the carbon embedded in certain energy-intensive goods (cement, electricity, fertilisers, iron and steel, aluminium and some chemicals). It does not cover this line, because it is not in the list of codes of Annex I.
Source: Regulation (EU) 2023/956, Annex ISafeguards
Chapter 9 of the agreement allows either Party to suspend the preference for a product if increased imports cause injury to its industry. It is a mechanism, not a list, and nothing applies unless a specific measure has been imposed. Check in TARIC whether any measure is in force for 2925 29 00.

It is the Member State that declares the import, which is not always where the goods are consumed: the ports of the Netherlands and Belgium receive goods for the whole Union.
What your competitors pay
Of the 11 countries on the list, today 9 pay less than you. For the other 2 the duty cannot be compared in a single figure. When you reach zero on 1 January 2030, none of them will pay less than you.

The steps, in order
6 steps, in the order they are taken. Each one comes from a block of this sheet.
- 1Confirm the tariff classification with a customs brokerThis whole sheet depends on the line being 2925 29 00. If the line changes, so do the duty, the quota, the rule of origin and the requirements. It is the one step that cannot be skipped.Customs broker
- 2Register as an exporter with ARCA (Argentina)On the Argentine side, the export is lodged with customs, which requires registration in the exporters' register. That registration comes before the first shipment.
- 3Check that the product is originating, and be ready to prove itThe rule for 2905.49 – 2942.00 requires that one of the options it gives be met; not all are needed. Without proof of origin there is no preference, and the MFN duty is paid even if the product qualifies. Origin is proven with the exporter's statement on origin (Annex 3-C). At the start, the transitional certificate of origin of Annex 3-D also applies (notice 2026/875).The exporter makes the statement. A certifying body is involved if the transitional certificate of Annex 3-D is needed.
- 4Obtain establishment approval and the health certificateThis line is on the list of goods the European Union controls at the border. The certificate is issued by SENASA, and for that the establishment must be approved and, depending on the product, appear on the EU list of approved establishments.
- 5The importer pre-notifies the consignment before arrivalThe consignment is announced in TRACES with a common health entry document (CHED) and enters through an approved border control post. If the port of destination has no post for this type of product, the consignment cannot enter there.TRACES NT · done by the EU importer
- 6Check the technical standards and CE marking for the productThe EU assigns one technical product standard to this line (Technical standards for pyrotechnic articles). Block 5 shows which ones apply to the product. If it applies, the product must carry the CE marking before being sold in the EU. See it in Access2MarketsEuropean Commission · Access2Markets
