HS-4 · Heading
0712 — Vegetables, dried; whole, cut, sliced, broken or in powder, but not further prepared
Chapter 07: Edible vegetables
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 0712 when importing dried vegetables such as onions, mushrooms, or other varieties that are whole, cut, sliced, broken, or powdered but not further prepared. For example, if you're shipping dried onion powder, this heading is appropriate.
To distinguish between subheadings under HS-4 0712, consider the specific type of vegetable. For instance, HS-6 071220 covers dried onions, while HS-6 071231 is for dried Agaricus mushrooms. Ensure you select the correct line based on your product's specific characteristics.
If your shipment includes dried wood ear mushrooms, you would use HS-6 071232. However, if you have dried shiitake mushrooms, then HS-6 071234 is the correct choice. Understanding these distinctions will help avoid misclassification.
For mixed vegetable shipments that do not fit neatly into the other subheadings, refer to HS-6 071290. This line is for mixtures of dried vegetables that are not specifically categorized elsewhere within this heading.
