U.S. imports of whole cinnamon-tree flowers (neither crushed nor ground) (HS 090619) totaled $3.9M in April 2026, traded with 6 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataCinnamon-tree flowers are a niche spice commodity — the dried floral parts of Cinnamomum species — distinct from the bark and used in specialty culinary and traditional medicine applications. Indonesia leads US imports of this heading, reflecting its position as a major Cinnamomum cassia and C. burmannii producer, with Vietnam and Sri Lanka as secondary sources. Classified under a single line (0906190000), the product's low trade volume relative to cinnamon bark means it is occasionally misclassified as bark or as a botanical extract; correct classification requires that the product be the dried flower rather than the bark, quill, or processed extract. FDA admissibility requirements for dried spices apply.

The distinction is botanical: heading 090619 covers the dried floral parts of the cinnamon tree, while cinnamon bark (whole, unground) classifies under 090611. Importers should ensure that commercial invoices and packing lists clearly identify the plant part, as CBP may request documentation — such as a phytosanitary certificate or supplier declaration — to confirm the product is the flower rather than bark or a mixed botanical.
Dried cinnamon-tree flowers, as a processed dried plant product, generally do not require an APHIS import permit, but APHIS regulations can change based on pest-risk assessments for specific origins. Importers should verify current APHIS requirements for the country of origin before shipment, particularly for origins where new pest or disease concerns have been identified. Consulting a licensed customs broker or regulatory specialist is recommended.
