Last updated: July 2026 dataFresh and chilled olives — distinct from brined, canned, or otherwise prepared olives classified elsewhere — enter the US under a single tariff line (0709920000) and are subject to FDA admissibility review as a fresh produce commodity. Greece and Spain are the principal Mediterranean suppliers, while Mexico also appears among leading sources. Because fresh olives are highly perishable and rarely traded in large volumes compared with processed forms, importers typically serve specialty food, olive oil pressing, and artisan curing operations rather than mass-market retail.

Fresh or chilled olives that have not been processed, preserved, or prepared fall under HTS heading 070992, while olives that have been brined, cured, or otherwise prepared for direct consumption are classified under Chapter 20. The distinction turns on whether the product has undergone a preservation or preparation process beyond simple chilling.
The primary buyers are specialty food producers, artisan olive curers, and small-scale olive oil pressers who require fresh, unprocessed fruit. Volume is modest compared with prepared olive imports, and shipments from Mediterranean suppliers like Greece and Spain are typically timed to the autumn harvest season.
