Last updated: July 2026 dataShelled legumes — from black-eye cowpeas to a broad range of other dried and canned bean varieties — are classified here, with the US schedule distinguishing cowpeas from other beans and further separating dried-canned from other preparation methods across four 10-digit lines (2005512020, 2005512040, 2005514020, 2005514040). Guatemala leads supply under this heading, reflecting its strong export position in black beans and other Central American legume varieties. Canada and Mexico are also significant sources, with USMCA providing duty-free access for qualifying shipments from both. FDA FSMA foreign supplier verification requirements apply to all canned and preserved bean imports.

The US schedule provides dedicated lines for black-eye cowpeas — one for dried-canned (2005512020) and one for other preparations (2005512040) — separate from lines covering all other shelled beans (2005514020 for dried-canned and 2005514040 for other preparations). Importers must correctly identify the bean species and preparation method to select the right 10-digit line.
'Dried canned' refers to beans that were dried before being canned in liquid, the most common commercial format for shelf-stable legumes. The NESOI (not elsewhere specified or included) lines capture other preserved forms — such as beans packed in sauce, oil, or brine without prior drying. The distinction affects which 10-digit line applies and, in some cases, the applicable duty rate.
