Description

Overview

This HTS category, 0811, encompasses a specific range of fruits and nuts that have undergone a minimal processing treatment of being uncooked or cooked by steaming or boiling in water. Crucially, these products must be frozen, and may or may not have added sugar or other sweetening matters. This classification focuses on preserving the natural state of the fruit and nuts while preventing spoilage through freezing.

Distinguishing 0811 from its sibling categories within Chapter 8 is essential. While other headings in Chapter 8 deal with fresh, chilled, or dried fruits and nuts (e.g., heading 0804 for dates, figs, pineapples, avocados, guavas, mangoes and mangosteens, fresh or dried, whether or not chilled; heading 0813 for fruit, dried, other than that of headings 0801 to 0806; nuts other than those of heading 0801 or 0802), category 0811 specifically pertains to those that are frozen and have undergone simple water-based cooking methods. It does not include fruits and nuts that have been preserved by other means, such as being canned, dried with heat, or subjected to more extensive processing.

Within category 0811, further subdivisions are made to refine the classification based on specific types of fruits. For example, 0811.10.00 specifically addresses strawberries, while 0811.20 covers a distinct group of berries like raspberries, blackberries, mulberries, loganberries, and various types of currants and gooseberries. The residual category, 0811.90, serves as a catch-all for all other fruits and nuts that meet the general criteria of being frozen and simply cooked by steaming or boiling, but are not specifically listed in the preceding subheadings. This hierarchical structure allows for precise identification and accurate duty assessment based on the exact nature of the frozen fruit or nut product.
