‘Heading 0408 covers whole eggs not in shell, and egg yolks of all birds. The products of this heading may be fresh, dried, cooked by steaming or by boiling in water, moulded (e.g. cylindrical ‘long eggs’), frozen or otherwise preserved. All these fall in the heading whether or not containing added sugar or other sweetening matter and whether for use as food or for industrial purposes (e.g., in tanning).

This heading does not cover:

(a)

Oil of egg yolk (heading 1506).

(b)
