Last updated: April 2026 dataDates enter the US under a notably granular tariff structure that distinguishes whole pitted, whole with pits, non-whole forms, certified organic, and retail-pack units weighing less than 4.6 kg — making precise product specification essential before filing entry. Mexico leads US date imports, with Tunisia and Israel also significant suppliers, reflecting both proximity-driven supply chains and the prominence of Medjool and Deglet Noor varieties from North African and Middle Eastern origins. Importers should confirm whether product is whole or non-whole and whether it is retail-packed, as these physical characteristics determine which of the seven 10-digit lines applies.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The US schedule separates whole dates with pits (0804104000), whole pitted dates (0804106000), and dates that are not whole — such as chopped, pressed, or paste forms (0804108000). The distinction is based on physical form at time of importation, not intended end use. Importers of date paste, date syrup precursors, or chopped dates should classify under the non-whole line rather than a whole-date provision.
Lines 0804102010 and 0804102090 apply specifically to whole dates packed in retail units weighing less than 4.6 kg each. This threshold mirrors a common retail packaging standard and carries its own duty treatment separate from bulk whole dates. Importers shipping consumer-ready date packages should verify unit weight against this threshold to select the correct tariff line.
