Fresh Mulberries from Canada
Fresh mulberries (Morus spp.) are small, juicy berries ranging from white to black, often sold in small consumer trays for fresh eating. Under HTS 0810.20.90, they qualify as 'other' fresh fruit in this category when untreated and ready for immediate consumption. Their short shelf life requires rapid import logistics.
