Last updated: April 2026 dataTruffles — among the highest-value fresh fungi in trade — and cultivated mushrooms such as button, shiitake, and oyster varieties share this heading but occupy very different commercial tiers. Fresh truffles are highly perishable luxury goods with a shelf life measured in days, requiring air freight and expedited customs clearance to preserve quality and value. FDA prior notice and admissibility review apply to all fresh fungi as food commodities, and importers of wild-harvested species should be prepared to document species identification, as some wild fungi can be confused with toxic lookalikes.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Beyond standard FDA prior notice and a commercial invoice, importers of fresh truffles should be prepared to provide species identification documentation, as FDA may request verification that the product is an edible species. Given the extreme perishability and high unit value, working with a customs broker experienced in perishable luxury goods is strongly recommended.
The US HTS schedule separates mushrooms by genus and cultivation status — for example, Agaricus mushrooms are typically distinguished from other cultivated species, and truffles have their own tariff line. Accurate species identification on the commercial invoice is essential to avoid misclassification and potential delays at entry.
