U.S. imports of fresh or chilled celery (excluding celeriac) (HS 070940) totaled $8.7M in April 2026, traded with 4 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataStalk celery — explicitly excluding the root vegetable celeriac — is classified under a tariff structure that distinguishes organic from non-organic, reduced-in-size product from whole stalks, and two seasonal entry windows (April 15–July 31 versus August 1–April 14). Mexico and Canada together account for the overwhelming majority of US imports, reflecting the proximity and scale of North American greenhouse and field production. FDA oversight applies at entry, and USDA APHIS phytosanitary requirements govern admissibility from all origins.

Celery that has been cut, trimmed, or otherwise reduced in size (0709402000) is classified separately from whole or uncut stalks. This distinction matters because the reduced-in-size line carries its own duty rate and is not further subdivided by season or organic status, unlike the whole-stalk lines.
Yes — the US tariff schedule maintains separate 10-digit lines for organic (e.g., 0709400010, 0709404020, 0709406020) and non-organic celery (0709400050, 0709404040, 0709406040). Importers claiming the organic line must be prepared to substantiate organic certification with appropriate documentation at entry.
