HS Code 0711.59 – Vegetables; mushrooms other than of the genus Agaricus, provisionally preserved but unsuitable in that state for immediate consumption
HS code 0711.59 is the 6-digit subheading for vegetables, mushrooms other than of the genus Agaricus, provisionally preserved but unsuitable in that state for immediate consumption. It is used for brined shiitake mushrooms, provisionally preserved oyster mushrooms, enoki mushrooms in salt solution, semi-processed porcini and wood ear mushrooms in temporary preservative.
What HS 0711.59 covers
This HS code covers mushrooms other than those of the genus Agaricus (e.g., shiitake, oyster, enoki, porcini) that have been provisionally preserved, meaning they are in an intermediate state and not ready for immediate consumption. Similar to Agaricus mushrooms, this typically involves brining or other temporary methods to stabilize these specialty fungi for later processing into canned, dried, or ingredient forms. The international trade in these mushrooms caters to niche markets and specialty food manufacturers, particularly those focused on Asian cuisine or gourmet products. Major importers include countries with diverse culinary traditions and food processing capabilities, such as Japan, the USA, and Germany. Exporters often originate from regions where these specific mushroom varieties are cultivated extensively, like China, South Korea, and Vietnam. Key trade factors include maintaining the unique texture and flavor profiles of these diverse mushrooms during provisional preservation and ensuring proper handling for bulk industrial use.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
