How to Confirm the Correct Apricot Tariff Code

Before shipping fresh or dried apricots, verify the HS code in the importing country’s official customs tariff. Although the international six-digit HS codes are generally 0809.10 for fresh apricots and 0813.10 for dried apricots, countries may use additional digits for more specific classifications.

Check the product’s form, processing method, and any applicable customs requirements. If the classification is unclear, consult a licensed customs broker or the destination country’s customs authority. Remember that an HS code identifies a product for customs purposes; it does not indicate the applicable import duty rate.
