Final code reached
This is a complete 8-digit customs code. There is no further code choice to make below it.
This code covers mineral or chemical fertilisers containing nitrogen and potassium, or only one principal fertiliser element, including mixtures with animal, vegetable or mineral fertilisers. The product must contain more than 10% nitrogen by weight and must not be in tablet or similar form or in a package of gross weight <= 10 kg.
For example
Official tariff text

Besides the ordinary duty, the EU records these kinds of measure against this code. They are listed as signals only: whether one applies to your goods can depend on where they come from, who produced them, the exact product and the documents you present. No amounts are worked out here.
Trade-defence measures, such as anti-dumping duty, may apply to goods originating in Russian Federation; any country except Russian Federation.
The duty depends on the producer or exporter, so two shipments of the same goods can be charged differently.
This is recorded on a more detailed code below this one, so it may not cover your goods.

Before you use the code
The code can be right while what you pay still changes, because of where the goods come from, when they arrive, or extra EU measures.
Worth comparing
Codes that sit close to this one, for when the material itself could be different.
That code specifically covers mixtures of ammonium nitrate with calcium carbonate or other inorganic substances without fertilising value, with nitrogen content of > 28% by weight.
That code covers other mineral or chemical nitrogen fertilisers, with specific exclusions including fertilisers containing nitrogen and potassium or only one principal fertiliser element.
That code covers the same general fertiliser group when there is no nitrogen or the nitrogen content is <= 10% by weight, rather than more than 10%.
Duty rates shown here are estimates, read from official EU / Danish, Norwegian and UK tariff data for orientation only.
