Analysis
HTS 0810.90.27 covers other: other berries; tamarinds under heading 0810 (other fruit, fresh). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 2 ten-digit suffixes, reported in kilograms.
Within this group the rate runs from duty-free to 2.2%. Compared with 0810.90.46 (other: other), which pays 2.2%, a misclassification either way moves the duty by 2.2 percentage points.
For statistics it divides in two: 0810.90.27.30 for tamarinds and 0810.90.27.60 for berries. Both pay the same duty; the suffix records which kind was imported.
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 47% of the 60 tariff lines in chapter 08, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 111339 (Other Noncitrus Fruit Farming). That concordance is how imports of this line are compared with US output.
The general rate of Free has not changed in any edition of the schedule since Jan 2023.
