Importers of Roasted Chicory & Other Roasted Coffee Substitutes (Not Containing Coffee); Their Extracts, Essences & Concentrates paid $49K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 6.25% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataRoasted chicory root and similar plant-based coffee alternatives — entirely free of coffee — serve both as standalone beverages and as functional food ingredients valued for their inulin content and caffeine-free profile. The extracts and concentrates derived from these roasted substitutes are used in food manufacturing as flavoring agents and fiber sources, giving this heading a dual role in the beverage and food ingredient sectors. FDA treats these as food ingredients subject to standard import requirements, and chicory-derived inulin may also be reviewed under FDA's dietary fiber definition for nutrition labeling purposes. European producers have historically been significant suppliers of roasted chicory products given the crop's established cultivation in that region.

Chicory-derived inulin and chicory root fiber have been recognized by FDA as dietary fiber for nutrition labeling purposes, which affects how food manufacturers using these ingredients must calculate and declare fiber content on product labels. Importers supplying chicory extracts to food manufacturers should provide compositional documentation to support their customers' labeling compliance.
The critical distinction is the complete absence of coffee. SITC 07132 covers substitutes that contain coffee in any proportion, while 07133 covers only products with zero coffee content — roasted chicory, roasted barley, roasted rye, and their extracts. A product that contains even a small amount of coffee shifts to 07132, making ingredient verification essential for accurate classification.
