HS Code for DAP - Di-Ammonium Phosphate (HS 3105.30)

DAP is 18% N, 46% P2O5 - the phosphate workhorse for rice, wheat and maize. India imports ~5-6 million MT/yr and heavily subsidises retail prices. Chinese export licences and Moroccan OCP supply moves swing global prices.

Frequently asked questions

Cadmium limits impact?

EU Fertilising Products Regulation limits Cd to 60 mg/kg P2O5. Moroccan rock phosphate averages 25-45 mg/kg Cd - acceptable. Some African rocks exceed 200 mg/kg. Origin matters for EU-bound DAP; look for Cd content on Certificate of Analysis.
