Last updated: August 2026 dataFresh apple imports are split across five 10-digit HTS lines that distinguish certified organic (0808100010, 0808100045) from conventional fruit and apply a value threshold of $0.22 per kilogram to separate lower-priced from higher-priced conventional apples (0808100030, 0808100050, 0808100065) — a structure that makes accurate invoice valuation critical for correct classification. Chile is the leading supplier to the US market, reflecting Southern Hemisphere counter-seasonal production that fills domestic supply gaps during the US spring and early summer. New Zealand and Canada are also significant sources, with Argentina and China rounding out the top five. All fresh apple shipments require USDA APHIS phytosanitary clearance, and importers should confirm current pest-risk conditions for each origin. Classification and admissibility are complex; consult a licensed customs broker or USDA APHIS.

The US tariff schedule uses a $0.22/kg value breakpoint to separate tariff lines for conventional fresh apples. Apples valued at or below that threshold are classified under 0808100030, while higher-valued conventional apples fall under 0808100065. Accurate per-unit pricing on commercial invoices is essential, as misclassification between these lines can result in duty discrepancies and CBP penalties.
Yes. To claim the certified organic tariff lines (0808100010 or 0808100045), importers must be able to substantiate organic certification through documentation from an accredited certifying agent recognized under the USDA National Organic Program. Without proper certification records, CBP may reclassify the shipment under the conventional apple lines.
