Last updated: July 2026 dataApple juice with a Brix value at or below 20 and no added vitamins or minerals enters the US under a single 10-digit line (2009710000), making Brix measurement at the time of importation a critical classification checkpoint. Turkey is the leading supplier under this heading, followed by Canada and Mexico. Because low-Brix apple juice is often used as a base for blended beverages and retail single-serve products, importers should be prepared for FDA juice HACCP scrutiny, including verification that foreign processors maintain adequate pathogen controls for a product frequently consumed by children.

This heading applies to apple juice with a Brix value not exceeding 20, while the adjacent NESOI heading (200979) captures higher-Brix and concentrated forms. Brix is typically measured by refractometer on a representative sample at the port of entry or at the foreign laboratory whose results accompany the shipment. Importers should include certified Brix analysis in their entry documentation to avoid reclassification disputes.
Yes. FDA's juice HACCP regulation specifically identifies apple juice as a high-priority product due to historical pathogen incidents, and the agency has issued guidance on patulin (a mycotoxin from mold-damaged apples) as a hazard requiring control. Foreign processors must address patulin in their HACCP plans, and FDA may sample imported apple juice for patulin levels. Importers should confirm that supplier HACCP documentation explicitly covers this hazard.
