HS code for Vitamin D3 capsules, dietary supplement
HS 2022Destination USConfidence 0.80Reviewed by a second modelFood preparations not elsewhere specified or included > Other
Section IV: Prepared foodstuffs; beverages, spirits and vinegar; tobacco and manufactured tobacco substitutes; Products, whether or not containing nicotine, intended for inhalation without combustion; Other nicotine containing products intended for the intake of nicotine into the human body · Chapter 21: Miscellaneous edible preparations · Heading 2106: Food preparations not elsewhere specified or included
Why this code
Product is a vitamin D3 food supplement in capsules. Chapter 30 Note 1(a) excludes food supplements from Chapter 30, so 3004.50 does not apply unless the label states specific diseases, dosage and a dose significantly above the RDA (additional note to Ch.30). Heading 2936 covers vitamins as chemicals, not preparations put up in capsules with excipients and shell for dietary use. Additional Ch.21 note 5: food preparations in measured doses (capsules) intended as food supplements fall in 2106. It is not a protein concentrate, so subheading 2106.90 'Other' applies under GRI 6.
Rules applied: GRI 1, GRI 6, Chapter 30 Note 1(a), Chapter 21 additional note 5, Chapter 30 additional note 1.

Confidence 0.50. The product is a vitamin D3 capsule food supplement, and none of the offered specific lines (dairy, syrup, juice, confectionery, beverage preparations, or the other named categories) describes it, so the residual 'Other' line 2106909994 is the only fit. Composition, dose, and packaging are unstated, and the seller's title is untrusted text that was used only for its objective description, so confidence is moderate and the entry should be reviewed.
