South Korea is a notable source of Asian pear varieties, which are commercially distinct from European-type pears and may warrant careful variety-level classification review. The US schedule segments pears by entry date — April 1–June 30 (0808302045), July 1–March 31 (0808304015 for organic, 0808304045 for non-organic) — and separately identifies certified organic fruit (0808300010).

Yes, Asian pears (Pyrus pyrifolia and related species) are classified under heading 080830 alongside European-type pears. However, importers should confirm variety-level details with their customs broker, as the commercial distinction between Asian and European pears does not create a separate HTS heading — the entry-date and organic/non-organic subdivisions apply to both types.
The April 1–June 30 entry window (0808302045) carries a different duty rate than the July 1–March 31 lines, reflecting the domestic harvest calendar. Shipments arriving near the boundary dates should be carefully timed and documented, as the entry date — not the ship date — determines which line applies. Misclassification across these windows can result in underpayment or overpayment of duties.
