U.S. imports of mandarins, tangerines, and satsumas, fresh or dried (HS 080521) totaled $12.6M in April 2026, traded with 12 countries.
Tangerines are broken out at the 10-digit level (0805210010) separately from other mandarins and satsumas (0805210090), making varietal identification at the time of entry a practical classification concern. Chile and Peru are the dominant suppliers, with Morocco also a notable source — all three ship during the Northern Hemisphere's off-season, making this a strongly counter-seasonal import category. Fresh citrus from all origins is subject to USDA APHIS phytosanitary inspection, and importers should confirm that country-specific treatment requirements are met before loading.

The HTS separates tangerines (0805210010) from other mandarins including satsumas (0805210090). Classification depends on the botanical variety as documented by the exporter. When the variety is ambiguous or the commercial invoice uses generic terms, importers should obtain a written varietal declaration from the shipper to support the chosen tariff line.
Chile and Peru harvest mandarins during the Southern Hemisphere autumn and winter, which aligns with the US spring and summer — periods of lower domestic US citrus production. Importers can use this window to source fresh product, but should monitor APHIS phytosanitary conditions and cold-treatment requirements, which can vary by origin and season.
