Classification of dried vegetable mix under HS 0712.90
Dried vegetable mixtures are classified under HS code 0712.90. This code is found in Chapter 7, which covers edible vegetables and certain roots and tubers. Heading 0712 is dedicated to vegetables that have been dried, whether whole, cut, sliced, broken, or in powder form, but not further prepared. Subheading 0712.90 is the residual category within this heading, specifically covering mixtures of different dried vegetables that are not individually specified in other subheadings. For a product to be classified here, it must consist of two or more types of vegetables that have undergone dehydration to remove moisture content, thereby extending shelf life without the use of vinegar, sugar, or other preservatives. This classification is intended for bulk ingredients or vegetable blends used in food manufacturing. It is important to distinguish these from prepared foods; if the mixture includes seasonings, bouillon, or starch to create a ready-to-cook soup, it would likely move to Chapter 21. The 0712.90 code ensures that raw, dehydrated agricultural components are tracked separately from value-added food preparations.

Codes often confused with 0712.90
Common mistake. Dried vegetable mixes are often misclassified under 2104.10, which covers soups and broths and preparations thereof. The distinction lies in the level of preparation; if the mix contains added salt, spices, or thickening agents like cornstarch, it is a soup preparation (2104.10) rather than a simple vegetable mixture (0712.90). Another error is using 0712.20 (dried onions) or 0712.39 (dried mushrooms) for a mixture. If the product is a blend, the specific subheadings for individual vegetables are bypassed in favor of the 0712.90 mixture code.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. 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).
