HS HEADING 0714

Manioc, arrowroot, salep, Jerusalem artichokes, sweet potatoes and similar roots and tubers with high starch or inulin content; fresh, chilled, frozen or dried, whether or not sliced or in the form of pellets; sago pith

In plain English

This category covers edible roots and tubers that contain high levels of starch or inulin, including manioc, arrowroot, salep, Jerusalem artichokes, sweet potatoes, and sago pith. These items are classified based on their specific type, such as yams, taro, or yautia, regardless of whether they are fresh, chilled, frozen, dried, sliced, or formed into pellets. The classification system separates these goods by identifying the particular plant species, grouping manioc, sweet potatoes, and other specific varieties into distinct categories while placing remaining similar roots and sago pith in a final group.

Chapter 07 classification notes

Fresh produce imports require phytosanitary certificates in almost every destination. USDA APHIS (US), MAFF (Japan), DAFF (Australia), and MPI (NZ) run the strictest regimes; seasonal import prohibitions are common.

Frequent misclassification in this chapter

Dried pulses classify under 0713, not Chapter 10 (cereals). Frozen vegetables stay in Chapter 07 (0710) even if blanched; preserved-in-vinegar vegetables move to Chapter 20.

Classification certainty

The 6-digit level shown here is the internationally harmonised layer. Duty rates attach to national 8-10 digit tariff lines, which differ by country — use the duty calculator for lane estimates. For binding certainty, request a ruling from the destination customs authority.
