U.S. imports of miscellaneous prepared or preserved fruits & edible plant parts (HS 200899) totaled $212.1M in April 2026, traded with 86 countries.
Importers of Miscellaneous Prepared or Preserved Fruits & Edible Plant Parts paid $7.9M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 11% on $73.4M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Miscellaneous Prepared or Preserved Fruits & Edible Plant Parts imports of $212.1M in April 2026 ran 12% above the year-to-date monthly average of $189.4M.
Last updated: April 2026 dataA broad catch-all heading covering dozens of prepared or preserved fruits and edible plant parts not classified elsewhere — from organic avocados (2008991010) and wild canned blueberries (2008991810) to cassava (2008996500), sweet ginger (2008996300), and Chinese water chestnuts in frozen, sliced, or whole form. Mexico leads US import supply, followed by South Korea and Canada, with Ecuador and China also significant sources, reflecting the heading's unusually diverse commodity mix. FDA oversight applies at entry, and importers should note that individual 10-digit lines carry distinct duty rates, making precise classification critical to landed-cost calculations. The heading's breadth means misclassification risk is high — particularly for pulp versus whole-fruit distinctions and for certified-organic versus conventional avocado lines.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The schedule separates certified organic avocados (2008991010) from all other prepared or preserved avocados (2008991090), but does not create a dedicated pulp-versus-whole split for avocados the way it does for bananas (2008991300 for pulp vs. 2008991500 for other banana forms) or papayas (2008994500 for pulp vs. 2008995000 for other). Importers should review the specific physical form and processing method against each 10-digit line to avoid misclassification.
Several commodity-specific lines sourced from China — including water chestnuts and certain preserved plant products — may be subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers should verify the applicable Section 301 list status for each 10-digit line and country of origin, as exposure varies significantly across the heading's many subheadings.
All prepared and preserved fruit products require FDA prior notice under the Bioterrorism Act before arrival, and the importer of record must ensure the foreign facility is registered with FDA. Depending on the product, a Lacey Act declaration may also apply if plant-derived materials are included. Admissibility and classification are complex; consult a licensed customs broker or FDA for guidance specific to your product.
