HS code for Peaches: 0809.30

Fruit, edible, peaches, including nectarines, fresh.

Classification of peaches under HS 0809.30

Peaches, including nectarines, are classified under HS code 080930. This classification falls within Chapter 8, which encompasses edible fruit and nuts. Specifically, heading 0809 is dedicated to stone fruits such as apricots, cherries, peaches, plums, and sloes. The subheading 080930 is unique because it explicitly groups peaches and nectarines together, as they are botanically the same species (Prunus persica). To remain under this code, the fruit must be fresh. The classification is determined by the botanical nature of the fruit and its state of preservation at the time of customs entry.

Codes often confused with 0809.30

Common mistake. A frequent misclassification occurs with HS code 081190, which covers frozen peaches. If the fruit has been frozen, even without added sugar, it cannot stay in 0809. Another common mistake involves HS code 200870, which is used for peaches that have been prepared or preserved, such as those in cans, jars, or syrup. Furthermore, dried peaches are classified under HS code 081340. Importers must ensure the fruit is truly fresh and not provisionally preserved in brine or sulfur water, which would move the classification to HS code 081290.

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).
