38 HTS codes in this chapter

Vegetable and agricultural products

Chapters 6 through 14 cover products of the plant kingdom: live plants, vegetables, fruits, cereals, oilseeds, and other agricultural products. Mexico is one of the world's leading importers and exporters of agricultural products, with significant trade flows under USMCA. Precise tariff classification is critical because duties vary enormously depending on product presentation (fresh, frozen, processed) and end use. SENASICA phytosanitary regulations and Official Mexican Standards (NOM) establish specific requirements by product type and country of origin.

Key Regulations

USDA APHIS — Phytosanitary requirements per product and origin
FDA — Produce safety rule and prior notice
USMCA — Preferential duty rates for qualifying agricultural goods
CBP — Agricultural entry inspections
