Last updated: April 2026 dataThailand dominates US imports of prepared and preserved pineapple, with Indonesia and the Philippines rounding out the top three suppliers — a concentration that makes Southeast Asian crop cycles and container availability central to procurement planning. The US schedule distinguishes between products containing cane or beet sugar (2008200010) and all other preparations (2008200090), a split that affects both duty treatment and label compliance under FDA food-additive rules. Canned pineapple rings, chunks, tidbits, and crushed pineapple in syrup or juice are the dominant commercial forms, widely used by food-service processors and retail packers.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The US tariff schedule separates pineapple preparations containing added cane or beet sugar (2008200010) from those preserved by other means or with no added sugar (2008200090). Importers must verify the ingredient declaration and processing records to ensure correct classification, as misclassification can trigger duty underpayment claims.
Prepared and preserved pineapple is subject to FDA prior notice, labeling requirements under 21 CFR, and may be detained for sampling if the foreign establishment is on an import alert. Products in hermetically sealed containers must also comply with FDA's low-acid canned food (LACF) regulations if applicable. Consult a licensed customs broker or regulatory specialist to confirm admissibility requirements for your specific product.
