What to know before exporting under HS 1106
Heading 1106 belongs to chapter 11, products of the milling industry, and has three subheadings. Each one has its own duty and, in many markets, its own requirements. Choosing the right subheading is the first step, because everything else follows from it.
The classification depends on the raw material, not on the final use. Flour made from dried pulses of heading 0713 is classified differently from flour made from roots or tubers of heading 0714 or from the products of chapter 8. Check the product against the legal text of each heading and subheading before quoting.
The market table shows where demand is concentrated. The United States, Germany, France, Canada and the United Kingdom are the five largest importers by value in the latest consolidated year. These figures are what each country declares importing from the world, not what Spain exports to it, so they measure market size and not the share open to a Spanish supplier.
For a company exporting from Spain, the applicable duty depends on the subheading and on the trade agreement in force with the destination. Access2Markets shows the duty, the rules of origin and the product requirements for each country by entering the code and the destination. For EU member states in the table, such as Germany, France or Italy, shipments from Spain move within the single market and no customs duty applies.
Entry requirements for food products, such as labelling, sanitary controls or documentary checks, are set by each destination and can change by market. Ask the importer or the customs broker for the current list before production, and compare it with the official source of the destination country.
Reporting countries submit their data with a delay. The figures reflect the latest year with consolidated data, so compare them with a second year before deciding priorities, and confirm trends in UN Comtrade or in ITC Trade Map.

Frequently asked questions
What products are classified under HS 1106?
HS 1106 covers flour, meal and powder of dried leguminous vegetables of heading 0713, of sago, of roots or tubers of heading 0714, and of the products of chapter 8. It sits in chapter 11 and has three subheadings.
Which countries import the most under HS 1106?
In 2025 the United States was the largest importer by value, with 90,157,878 USD, followed by Germany with 79,981,952 USD and France with 74,038,932 USD. The source is UN Comtrade, based on imports declared by each country from the world.
Do I pay customs duty when exporting HS 1106 from Spain to Germany or France?
No customs duty applies to goods moving from Spain to another EU member state, because they circulate within the single market. Other taxes and documentary obligations, such as VAT, still apply and depend on the operation.
Where do I find the duty for exporting HS 1106 outside the EU?
The duty depends on the subheading, the destination and any trade agreement in force. Access2Markets, the European Commission tool, shows the duty, the rules of origin and the product requirements when you enter the code and the destination country.
Do the import figures show how much Spain sells to each market?
No. They show what each country declares importing from the world under this heading. They indicate the size of the market, not the volume bought from Spain. For bilateral flows, consult UN Comtrade or Eurostat.
