HS v2022 Code: 090111

About coffee; not roasted or decaffeinated

HS code 090111 covers unroasted and non-decaffeinated coffee, a globally traded agricultural commodity that is a crucial input for the food and beverage industry. Coffee is one of the most widely consumed drinks worldwide, with significant economic and social importance, particularly in producing countries. The global coffee trade plays a vital role in the economies of many developing nations, providing employment and income for millions of smallholder farmers.

Production process

The production of unroasted, non-decaffeinated coffee involves several key steps. After harvesting, the coffee cherries undergo processing to remove the outer skin and pulp, leaving the green coffee beans. The beans are then dried, either naturally in the sun or using mechanical driers, to reduce their moisture content. Finally, the dried beans are hulled to remove the papery husk, sorted, and prepared for export.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 090111 coffee include the coffee plant itself, which is typically grown in tropical and subtropical regions. Other key inputs include land, water, and labor for harvesting and processing the coffee cherries. Specialized machinery, such as pulpers, driers, and hullers, are also necessary for the post-harvest processing of the coffee beans.
