Last updated: July 2026 dataBlended spice products combining ingredients that would individually fall under different Chapter 9 headings — such as a curry blend containing turmeric, coriander, and cumin — are classified here under the Chapter 9 Note 1(b) rule, which directs mixed spices to 0910910000 rather than to the heading of the predominant component. Pakistan and India are the leading US suppliers of these blended products, reflecting strong domestic blending and packaging industries serving both retail and food-service export markets. Because the composition of a blend determines its classification, importers must maintain detailed ingredient declarations; a blend that crosses into a prepared food formulation may instead fall under Chapter 21.

Chapter 9, Note 1(b) of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule directs that mixtures of spices from two or more headings within Chapter 9 are classified in heading 0910 — specifically 0910910000 — regardless of which spice predominates by weight or value. If a blend contains non-spice ingredients that shift it into a prepared food formulation, it may instead be classified under Chapter 21, so precise ingredient documentation is essential.
FDA requires prior notice for all food shipments and expects the entry to accurately reflect the product's composition. For spice blends, a complete ingredient list with percentage weights, the country of origin for each component, and the manufacturer's specification sheet help facilitate FDA review and support the HTS classification. Shipments from facilities on FDA Import Alert may face automatic detention regardless of blend composition.
