Last updated: April 2026 dataUSDA APHIS imposes strict phytosanitary requirements on imported seed potatoes, including certification of disease-free status and approval of the exporting country's seed-potato program before shipment can enter the US. The US tariff schedule breaks this heading into two 10-digit lines: small-container seed potatoes (0701100020, packaged in containers not exceeding 45 kg net weight) and all other seed potatoes (0701100040). Canada dominates supply, reflecting its proximity and established certified seed programs, with the Dominican Republic as a secondary source. Importers should confirm that the exporting country's seed certification scheme has been accepted by APHIS, as non-compliant lots are subject to refusal at the port of entry.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
USDA APHIS requires a phytosanitary certificate from the exporting country's national plant protection organization, and the source country's seed-potato certification program must be recognized by APHIS. Shipments may also be subject to post-entry inspection or quarantine conditions depending on the origin.
The key split is packaging size: 0701100020 covers seed potatoes in containers with a net weight of 45 kg or less, while 0701100040 captures all other seed potatoes not elsewhere specified. Correct classification depends on the actual container weight at time of entry.
