Classification of not frozen orange concentrate under HS 2009.19
Not frozen orange concentrate is classified under HS code 2009.19. This classification applies to orange juice that is not frozen and has a Brix value exceeding 20. The Brix value is a measure of the sugar content (soluble solids) in the liquid, and a value over 20 indicates a concentrated form compared to single-strength juice. Heading 2009 covers fruit juices and vegetable juices, unfermented and not containing added spirit. Subheading 2009.19 specifically captures orange juice that is liquid or paste-like at room temperature or chilled (but not frozen to a solid state). This includes products that have been concentrated through evaporation or other processes but are stored in aseptic packaging or drums for further dilution or industrial use. The classification is determined by the fruit type (orange), the physical state (not frozen), and the concentration level (Brix > 20).

Codes often confused with 2009.19
Common mistake. The most common misclassification is HS code 2009.11, which is reserved for frozen orange juice. If the product is solid or requires sub-zero storage to maintain its state, it belongs in 2009.11. Another common error is using 2009.12, which is for orange juice that is not frozen but has a Brix value of 20 or less (single-strength juice). Importers must verify the Brix certificate to distinguish between 2009.12 and 2009.19.

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).
