Hydroponic Snow Peas from China
Hydroponic snow peas are grown without soil, producing clean, pesticide-free pods harvested fresh for high-end markets. They are classified under tariff item 0708.10.99 as 'other' fresh or chilled leguminous vegetables, as the growing method does not affect classification under the Customs Tariff.

Import Tips
• The growing method (hydroponic) does not change the tariff classification; ensure the product is fresh or chilled and unshelled
• Keep records of the cultivation method if claiming organic or premium status for marketing, but this is not required for CBSA
• Verify that the peas are not treated with preservatives, which would alter the heading
