Last updated: August 2026 dataSeasonal supply patterns heavily influence import timing for this heading, which splits at the 10-digit level into tangerines (0805210010) and all other mandarins including satsumas (0805210090). Chile and Peru are the dominant Southern Hemisphere suppliers, with Morocco contributing meaningfully from the Northern Hemisphere, giving US importers year-round sourcing options across multiple origins. All fresh citrus shipments are subject to USDA APHIS phytosanitary requirements, including pest-risk review and possible treatment conditions that vary by country of origin. Buyers should confirm current APHIS import conditions for each supplying country before contracting, as admissibility status can change.

The US tariff schedule separates tangerines into their own 10-digit line (0805210010), while satsumas and other mandarins not elsewhere specified fall under 0805210090. The distinction matters because duty rates and statistical reporting differ between the two lines, so correct species identification at entry is essential.
USDA APHIS requires a phytosanitary certificate from the exporting country's national plant protection organization for all fresh citrus. Depending on origin, additional conditions such as cold treatment, systems approaches, or approved packinghouse certification may apply. Importers should verify current APHIS import conditions for each specific origin before shipment. Classification and admissibility are complex; consult a licensed customs broker or APHIS for current requirements.
