U.S. imports of Frozen Prepared or Preserved Vegetables (Not Elsewhere Specified) (HS 200490) totaled $27.8M in August 2026, imported from 48 countries.

Last updated: August 2026 dataA broad catch-all for frozen vegetable preparations not covered by more specific headings, this subheading spans antipasto blends (2004901000), beans (2004908000), carrots, sweet corn, peas, and multiple garlic forms — including peeled cloves (2004908565), red garlic beyond clove size (2004908575), and other garlic preparations (2004908585). Mexico and Canada together supply the majority of volume, with USMCA providing duty-free access for qualifying goods from both origins. Garlic preparations from China, when applicable, face Section 301 exposure, making origin documentation especially important for mixed-vegetable products that may contain Chinese-sourced ingredients. FDA FSMA foreign supplier verification requirements apply to all lines in this heading.

The schedule distinguishes frozen garlic by physical form: peeled individual cloves (2004908565), garlic processed to a size beyond the individual clove such as minced or paste forms (2004908575), and other garlic preparations not elsewhere specified (2004908585). Each form may carry different duty treatment, so the processing method and physical state at time of import determine the correct line.
For mixed preparations, the country of origin is generally determined by where substantial transformation occurred. If a product is blended or processed in Mexico or Canada, USMCA rules of origin must be satisfied to claim preferential treatment. When Chinese-origin ingredients are incorporated, importers should assess whether Section 301 tariffs apply to the finished product and maintain detailed ingredient-origin records for CBP review.
