Last updated: July 2026 dataExotic and specialty fruits that do not fit a named heading — including dragon fruit, lychee, jackfruit, rambutan, pomegranates, cactus pears, tomatillos, and tamarinds — are classified across dedicated 10-digit lines within this residual heading, reflecting the US schedule's growing recognition of specialty tropical trade. Mexico is the dominant supplier, with Ecuador and Peru also significant sources for items such as dragon fruit and tomatillos. FDA food-safety requirements and USDA APHIS phytosanitary certificates apply to all fresh fruit entries; correct line selection depends on matching the specific fruit to its named 10-digit line (e.g., 0810904630 for dragon fruit, 0810904650 for lychee) before defaulting to the catch-all NESOI line.

The US schedule under 081090 includes specific 10-digit lines for dragon fruit (0810904630), jackfruit (0810904640), lychee (0810904650), pomegranates (0810904660), rambutan (0810904670), cactus pears (0810904620), and tomatillos (0810904675). Importers should first check whether the fruit matches one of these named lines; only fruits not described by any named line should be entered under the general NESOI line (0810904680). Misclassification into NESOI when a specific line exists can trigger a CF-28 or penalty.
For HTS classification purposes, tomatillos are classified as fresh fruit under heading 0810904675 within Chapter 8, not as vegetables under Chapter 7. This botanical classification can differ from culinary usage and affects both the applicable duty rate and the chapter notes that govern admissibility.
