Notes

1. This Chapter does not cover forage products of heading 12.14.

2. In headings 07.09, 07.10, 07.11 and 07.12 the word “vegetables” includes edible mushrooms, truffles, olives, capers, marrows, pumpkins, aubergines, sweet corn (Zea mays var. saccharata), fruits of the genus Capsicum or of the genus Pimenta, fennel, parsley, chervil, tarragon, cress and sweet marjoram (Majorana hortensis or Origanum majorana).

3. Heading 07.12 covers all dried vegetables of the kinds falling in headings 07.01 to 07.11, other than:

(a) dried leguminous vegetables, shelled (heading 07.13);

(b) sweet corn in the forms specified in headings 11.02 to 11.04;

(c) flour, meal, powder, flakes, granules and pellets of potatoes (heading 11.05);

Vietnam trade in subheading 0704.90

2025: as reported by partner countries

Vietnam has not filed 2025 yet, so this is rebuilt from what its 16 largest trading partners reported about trade with Vietnam (85% of Vietnam's trade). Not the same measure as the figures above — compare it only with the 2023 row beside it.

Flow20232025Change
Exports86,410 USD3 mn USD+3385%
Imports99,053 USD53,631 USD-46%
  • Exports 2023: partners reported 86,410 USD where Vietnam reported 17 mn USD — 0.01× on this measure.
  • Imports 2023: partners reported 99,053 USD where Vietnam reported 30 mn USD — 0.00× on this measure.

The gap is not a rounding difference: goods re-exported through Hong Kong or Singapore, a different heading chosen by the importing customs, and origin-based versus destination-based attribution all pull the two measures apart. Use the year-on-year change, not the level.

Corresponding US tariff lines

Six digits are identical worldwide under the HS Convention, so 0704.90 is the same subheading in both schedules. What differs is how each country splits it: below are the 8 US lines under 0704.90.

These are added to the General duty above, not in place of it. Whether a given article falls inside their scope — and the exclusion lists — is set out in the U.S. notes to Chapter 99, which are prose and not machine-readable, so this site does not assign them per code.

Selling to a US buyer? Screen the parties first — buyer, L/C bank and forwarder against the US restricted lists; a listed party can get the shipment held.

Corresponding Japanese tariff lines

0704.90 is the same subheading in both schedules (six digits are identical worldwide under the HS Convention). Vietnamese goods can enter Japan under four parallel preference routes — the columns below — and the exporter picks whichever C/O gives the better rate.
