Last updated: July 2026 dataConcentrated or purified saps and extracts derived from plant sources — including opium, belladonna, cascara, and a wide range of botanical extracts used in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and food flavoring — are commercially significant inputs across multiple industries. FDA exercises oversight over many botanical extracts intended for drug or dietary supplement use, while food-grade extracts may also require compliance with FDA food additive regulations. The classification is broad enough to encompass both highly regulated controlled-substance precursors and routine food-industry ingredients, making precise product identification critical at entry.

FDA regulates dietary supplement ingredients, including botanical extracts, under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act. Importers must ensure that extracts meet FDA's current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements and that any new dietary ingredient not marketed before 1994 has a submitted New Dietary Ingredient notification. DEA oversight applies separately to extracts derived from controlled-substance plant sources.
Yes — intended use is a key classification factor. A plant extract destined for pharmaceutical formulation may be classified under a chemical or pharmaceutical heading rather than here, while the same extract sold as a food flavoring or cosmetic ingredient may remain in this vegetable products category. Importers should document end-use clearly and consult a customs broker when the same material serves multiple markets.
