Cranberries, blueberries and other fruits of the genus Vaccinium

Analysis

HTS 0810.40.00 covers cranberries, blueberries and other fruits of the genus Vaccinium under heading 0810 (other fruit, fresh). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 5 ten-digit suffixes, reported in kilograms.

Neighbouring lines carry rates from duty-free to 2.2%, so the exact line matters. The widest gap is with 0810.90.46 (other: other), at 2.2%: a product that belongs there but is entered here, or the reverse, changes the duty by 2.2 percentage points.

Goods classified here enter the United States duty-free at the general (normal trade relations) rate, as do about 47% of the 60 tariff lines in chapter 08. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.

The ten-digit suffixes separate wild, certified organic and cranberries. The duty is the same across them; the suffix matters for statistics, licensing and some quotas, and an entry needs all ten digits.

Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 111334 (Berry (except Strawberry) Farming). That is the industry code a US manufacturer of the same product would normally use.
