CHAPTER

20 — Preparations of vegetables, fruit, nuts or other parts of plants

In plain English

This category covers unfermented juices from fruits, nuts, or vegetables that have not had spirit added, regardless of whether sugar or other sweeteners are included. The items are sorted by specific fruit or vegetable type, such as orange, grape, apple, pineapple, tomato, or cranberry. Within these types, the goods are further divided based on whether the juice is frozen and how concentrated it is, measured by its sugar content. Finally, mixtures of multiple fruit or vegetable juices are grouped separately from single-ingredient juices.

Frequent misclassification in this chapter

Frozen vegetables (blanched only): Chapter 07, not 20. Baby food (fruit / vegetable purée under 1500g for infants): 2007 / 2008 unless milk-based (Chapter 19).

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.
