HS v2017 Code: 300230

About vaccines; for veterinary medicine

HS code 300230 covers vaccines for veterinary medicine, a critical component of the animal health industry. These vaccines play a vital role in preventing and controlling infectious diseases in livestock, poultry, and companion animals, contributing to the overall health and productivity of the agricultural sector. As a key part of the broader pharmaceutical industry, the veterinary vaccine market is a significant contributor to the global economy, with growing demand driven by factors such as increasing livestock production, rising pet ownership, and heightened awareness of animal welfare.

Production process

The production of veterinary vaccines typically involves several key steps. First, the causative agents (e.g., viruses, bacteria, or other pathogens) are isolated and cultured in controlled laboratory environments. These agents are then inactivated or attenuated to create the vaccine formulation. The vaccine is then purified, formulated, and packaged for distribution to veterinary clinics, farms, and other end-users.

Production inputs

The production of veterinary vaccines requires a range of inputs, including specialized laboratory equipment, cell culture media, and various raw materials such as 300210 Antisera, other blood fractions and immunological products, 300220 Vaccines for human medicine, and other biological components. Additionally, the industry relies on skilled researchers, scientists, and technicians to develop, test, and manufacture these critical animal health products.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 300230 is a diverse range of veterinary vaccines, which are used to prevent and control a wide variety of infectious diseases in animals. These vaccines are consumed by livestock producers, pet owners, and veterinary professionals to maintain the health and well-being of their animals. The outputs of this industry may also be used as inputs for other related 300290 Pharmaceutical preparations, 300410 Medicaments containing penicillins or derivatives thereof, and 300420 Medicaments containing other antibiotics products.
