What is HS code 19022030?

These goods encompass various types of pasta, such as ravioli, tortellini, or dumplings, specifically when their internal filling is composed of seafood ingredients like fish, shrimp, crab, or squid. They are commonly available in fresh, chilled, or frozen forms and might be partially or fully cooked to simplify consumer preparation. This classification is situated within Heading 1902, which broadly covers pasta, whether or not stuffed or otherwise prepared, and falls under Chapter 19, dedicated to preparations of cereals, flour, starch, or milk.

For proper classification upon import into Vietnam, it is essential to clearly identify and document the primary stuffing ingredient as fish, crustaceans, or molluscs. Importers should be prepared to provide detailed ingredient lists, product specifications, or technical data sheets to verify the exact composition of the filling. This distinction is critical to differentiate these products from other stuffed pasta varieties that contain meat or vegetable fillings, which are classified under separate subheadings within the same 1902.20 category.

Import-duty saving opportunity
MFN duty 40%drops to 0% under ATIGA (ASEAN)

A 40% gap - illustrated on a 100,000 USD shipment, that is roughly 40,000 USD saved in import duty.

But only if the shipment has a valid C/O and meets the rules of origin (RVC/CTC, etc.). The wrong C/O form or an RVC shortfall → duty reassessment and penalties at a post-clearance audit.

* The amount is illustrative only, not a commitment. The % gap comes from Vietnam’s 2026 tariff schedule; the preference actually granted depends on each shipment’s rules of origin.
