Last updated: July 2026 dataHeading 0704.90 is the catch-all for edible brassicas not covered by cauliflower/headed broccoli or Brussels sprouts, and the US schedule reflects the diversity of the category with dedicated lines for cabbage (0704902010 organic, 0704902050 conventional), bok choy (0704904015), sprouting broccoli (0704904022 organic, 0704904024 conventional), collards (0704904028), kale (0704904035), napa cabbage (0704904045), and kohlrabi (0704904040). Mexico and Canada together supply the majority of volume, with Guatemala, Costa Rica, and Jamaica serving specialty and seasonal demand. The breadth of products under this heading means that correct classification requires identifying the specific brassica type and organic status at the time of entry. USDA APHIS phytosanitary requirements apply across all lines.

Headed (calabrese) broccoli — the large, compact crown variety — is classified under heading 0704.10 alongside cauliflower. Sprouting broccoli, including broccolini and Tenderstem varieties characterized by thin stalks and small florets, falls under 0704.90, specifically lines 0704904022 (certified organic) and 0704904024 (conventional). The physical form of the head at harvest is the key distinguishing characteristic.
Bok choy (also called pak choi) has a dedicated line — 0704904015 — separate from napa cabbage (0704904045) and standard cabbage (0704902010/0704902050). This granularity allows CBP and trade analysts to track bok choy imports independently. Importers should use the bok choy-specific line rather than a general NESOI line to ensure accurate classification and avoid potential compliance issues.
