Last updated: April 2026 dataNew Zealand and Italy are the leading suppliers of fresh kiwi fruit to the US, together representing the two dominant commercial production regions for Actinidia chinensis. The US schedule provides three 10-digit lines — a legacy undivided line (0810500000) alongside separate lines for certified organic (0810500010) and non-organic (0810500090) kiwi — so importers must confirm which line is currently active for their shipment type. FDA regulates fresh kiwi admissibility, and USDA APHIS phytosanitary requirements apply, including inspection for pests such as the brown marmorated stink bug from European origins. The botanical synonym 'Chinese gooseberry' appears in the official heading description but should not be confused with true gooseberries classified under heading 081030.

USDA APHIS requires phytosanitary certificates for fresh kiwi from European sources, and shipments may be inspected for regulated pests including the brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys), which is established in parts of Europe. Italy and other Mediterranean suppliers must comply with APHIS-approved pre-clearance or inspection protocols; failure to meet these conditions can result in hold, treatment, or refusal at the port of entry.
No. Certified organic kiwi (0810500010) and non-organic kiwi (0810500090) are classified under separate 10-digit lines and must be declared and entered separately. Commingling organic and conventional product in a single entry line is a classification error and may also jeopardize the organic certification integrity of the organic portion of the shipment.
