U.S. imports of coconuts in the inner shell (endocarp), fresh or dried (HS 080112) totaled $1.0M in April 2026, traded with 7 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataCoconuts retained within their hard inner shell (endocarp) — whether fresh or dried — occupy a distinct classification from both desiccated coconut and whole fresh coconuts still in the outer husk. Vietnam and Mexico are the leading US suppliers under this heading, with India and the Dominican Republic also contributing meaningfully. USDA APHIS phytosanitary requirements apply, as shell material can harbor pests, and a phytosanitary certificate from the country of origin is generally required. Buyers should confirm whether product is destined for further processing or direct retail, as this can affect labeling and admissibility procedures.

The HTS separates coconuts by their state of processing: those still in the hard inner shell (endocarp) fall under 0801120000, while fully shelled or desiccated forms classify elsewhere. Misidentifying the shell layer present — outer husk versus inner endocarp — is a common classification error that can result in incorrect duty assessment.
USDA APHIS requires a phytosanitary certificate for coconuts in the shell, as the shell material may harbor quarantine pests. Importers should verify current APHIS import conditions for the specific country of origin, as treatment requirements (e.g., heat treatment) can vary by source country.
