Last updated: July 2026 dataFrozen vegetables and mixed vegetable blends that fall outside more specific SITC headings — including those uncooked or partially cooked by steaming or boiling — are a staple of the retail, foodservice, and industrial food-processing sectors. FDA regulates these products as processed foods, and importers must ensure compliance with labeling, facility registration, and food safety requirements under FSMA. The catch-all nature of this heading means classification disputes are common when a product could plausibly fit a more specific vegetable code, making pre-entry classification review advisable.

The 'N.E.S.' (not elsewhere specified) designation means this heading applies only when the vegetable or mixture does not fit a named, more specific SITC code. Importers should first check whether the primary vegetable ingredient has its own dedicated heading before defaulting to this residual category. Consulting a licensed customs broker is recommended for mixed-ingredient products.
Yes — FDA considers steam- or boil-cooked frozen vegetables to be processed foods, which can affect ingredient labeling, nutrition facts panel requirements, and facility registration obligations under FSMA. The degree of processing may also influence whether the product is classified as a raw agricultural commodity or a processed food for regulatory purposes.
