Written to help non-specialists understand this page. Rates, dates, and legal facts come from the official records above and on the linked source.
HTS heading 0813 covers dried fruit that is not covered by headings 0801 through 0806. It also covers mixtures of nuts or dried fruits from the relevant fruit chapter. In practical terms, this is a category for certain dried fruit products and qualifying fruit or nut mixtures, rather than a single product-specific code.
To choose the correct 8-digit HTSUS code, start with the product’s ingredients and physical form, then compare them with the more detailed subheading descriptions under 0813. The subheading may distinguish the type of fruit, whether the product is a mixture, and other classification details. Check the legal notes, wording of each subheading, and any applicable statistical suffix; a customs broker may be needed for unusual blends or processing methods.
What to check
- List every fruit or nut ingredient, including the proportion and any added ingredients.
- Confirm that the product is truly dried and is not covered by headings 0801 through 0806.
- Read every 6-digit and 8-digit subheading under 0813 before choosing a code; do not stop at the heading description.
- Check whether the product is a single dried fruit or a mixture, and apply the relevant mixture provision rather than assuming the dominant ingredient controls.
- Verify the current HTSUS text, chapter notes, unit of quantity, and statistical suffix, and obtain broker guidance when the blend or preparation is unusual.
HTS heading 0813 summary
Fruit is a 4-digit product category containing 3 published product-code lines in this snapshot. A heading does not carry one universal duty rate; classification must be narrowed to the line matching the product facts.
How to find your code in this category
A heading is a product category. To get the exact duty, narrow from this 4-digit heading to a sub-category (usually by material), then open the 8-digit code that matches your product.
Open any code in the tables below to see its exact duty rate, a duty calculator (enter your shipment value → estimated duty and landed cost), the rate-change history chart, and the country-by-country breakdown (including Section 301/232 add-on duties).
Why you have to click in: a single category can contain products with very different duties. The rate depends on the specific product — its material and construction — and on the country of origin, and those only get pinned down at the 8-digit code level. That is why this page points you to codes instead of showing one rate for the whole category.
