HS Code for TSR 20 Natural Rubber (HS 4001.22)

TSR 20 (Technically Specified Rubber, ISO 2000 class) is the tyre-industry workhorse - 70% of world natural rubber trade. SICOM (Singapore) and SGX (Singapore) futures set the reference. Indonesia + Thailand + Malaysia = 70% of world supply. EUDR is transformative for the industry.

Frequently asked questions

EUDR smallholder challenge?

Rubber is grown by 6 million smallholders across SE Asia, most with unclear plot boundaries. Traceability platforms (Halcyon Agri Radar, Michelin RubberWay) collect farmer GPS coordinates as polygons. Big tyre-makers (Michelin, Continental, Bridgestone) require traceable rubber from Q4 2025.
