Last updated: July 2026 dataDried cinnamon-tree flowers — the floral buds and flower parts of Cinnamomum species, distinct from the bark — are a specialty spice used in traditional cuisines and herbal preparations, entering under a single line (0906190000). Indonesia is the leading US supplier, with Vietnam and Sri Lanka also significant sources, reflecting the geographic overlap with cinnamon bark production regions. Because this product is less commonly traded than cinnamon bark, importers should be prepared for CBP to request additional documentation confirming that the commodity is indeed the flower rather than bark fragments or a mixed product, as misclassification between 090611 and 090619 is a realistic audit risk.

Importers should obtain a detailed product description from the supplier specifying that the commodity consists of dried floral parts (buds or flowers) of Cinnamomum species, not bark. A botanical certificate or laboratory analysis confirming the plant part can support the classification. Commercial invoices should use precise trade terminology — 'cinnamon flowers' or 'cinnamon buds' — rather than generic 'cinnamon' to reduce the risk of CBP questioning the heading. Consult a licensed customs broker for classification ruling options if uncertainty persists.
Yes — as a food-use spice, cinnamon-tree flowers are subject to FDA jurisdiction under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Importers must file Prior Notice with FDA before the shipment arrives and ensure the foreign supplier's facility is registered with FDA. Consult a licensed customs broker or food regulatory specialist for current admissibility requirements.
