Last updated: April 2026 dataYautia (Xanthosoma spp.), also known as malanga in Latin American trade, is a tropical corm with strong demand in US Hispanic markets. The heading covers fresh or chilled (0714501000) and frozen (0714502000) forms, with Mexico and Costa Rica the leading US suppliers. USDA APHIS phytosanitary inspection applies to fresh imports, and FDA governs food-use admissibility — the perishable nature of fresh yautia makes pre-arrival coordination with the port of entry essential to avoid quality loss during inspection holds.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes. Yautia and malanga are common trade names for the same genus (Xanthosoma), and both are classified under heading 071450. Importers should use the botanical or trade name consistently across commercial invoices, phytosanitary certificates, and entry documents to avoid classification questions at the port of entry.
No. The current 10-digit lines under 071450 cover only fresh or chilled yautia (0714501000) and frozen yautia (0714502000). Dried yautia or yautia in pellet form would need to be evaluated for classification under the residual roots and tubers heading (071490), and importers should consult a licensed customs broker to confirm the correct line before entry.
