HS code for Prepared mushrooms: 2003.90
Vegetable preparations, mushrooms and truffles, other than mushrooms of the genus Agaricus, prepared or preserved otherwise than by vinegar or acetic acid.
Classification of prepared mushrooms under HS 2003.90
HS code 2003.90 is utilized for the classification of mushrooms and truffles that have been prepared or preserved by methods other than vinegar or acetic acid. This code is found within Chapter 20, which covers preparations of vegetables, fruit, nuts, or other parts of plants. The classification logic for 2003.90 is specific: it excludes mushrooms of the genus Agaricus, which are classified under 2003.10. Therefore, this code is the primary destination for specialty mushrooms like shiitake, oyster, or porcini when they are canned, jarred, or otherwise preserved in brine or water. The preparation must go beyond the simple freezing or drying found in Chapter 07. For instance, mushrooms that have been fully cooked or preserved in a non-vinegar medium are classified here. It is important to note that the presence of small amounts of other ingredients for seasoning does not change the classification, provided the mushrooms remain the primary component. This code ensures that specialty fungi are tracked separately from common button mushrooms in international trade statistics.

Codes often confused with 2003.90
Common mistake. The most common misclassification is using HS code 2003.10, which is exclusively for mushrooms of the genus Agaricus (common button mushrooms). Importers also frequently confuse this with HS code 0712.39, which is for dried mushrooms. If the mushrooms are dried but not otherwise prepared, they belong in Chapter 07. Furthermore, if the mushrooms are preserved in vinegar or acetic acid, they must be classified under HS code 2001.90.

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).
