Last updated: July 2026 dataDates are subdivided extensively in the US tariff schedule by organic certification, pack size, pit status, and form — with separate lines for certified organic dates (0804100010), whole dates packed in units under 4.6 kg (0804102010 and 0804102090), whole pitted and unpitted dates (0804104000 and 0804106000), and non-whole forms (0804108000). Mexico leads import supply, with Tunisia and Israel also significant sources, reflecting both proximity-driven trade and the Middle East's historic role as a premium date-producing region. Pack-size and pit-removal status at time of entry are the primary classification variables, so importers must verify product specifications against the correct 10-digit line before filing entry. FDA review applies to all date imports as a food commodity.

Classification within 080410 depends on three overlapping criteria: (1) whether the dates are certified organic, (2) whether they are whole or non-whole (e.g., chopped or paste), and (3) for whole dates, whether they are packed in retail units weighing less than 4.6 kg and whether pits have been removed. Importers should confirm all three specifications with their supplier before filing entry to select the correct line.
No — variety (Medjool, Deglet Noor, etc.) does not create a separate HTS subdivision within 080410. Classification is driven by organic status, pack size, and pit status, not by cultivar. However, variety is commercially significant for valuation and may appear on invoices; importers should ensure that the declared value accurately reflects the premium commanded by Medjool or other high-value varieties.
