Products classified under HTS 0812.90.40.00
Sulfur Dioxide Preserved Pineapple Chunks
Pineapple chunks treated with sulfur dioxide gas for provisional preservation during transport and storage.

Classified under HTS 0812.90.4000 as provisionally preserved pineapples per Chapter Note.
Brine-Preserved Whole Pineapples
Whole pineapples preserved in brine solution to prevent spoilage during shipping from tropical regions. The brined state makes them unsuitable for direct consumption and requires rinsing and processing. Fits HTS 0812.90.4000 as other provisionally preserved pineapples.
Sulfur Water Treated Pineapple Slices
Pineapple slices immersed in sulfur water for short-term preservation during overseas transport. This treatment ensures they remain firm but unsuitable for immediate eating without washing and further prep. Classified in 0812.90.4000 per chapter definition for provisional preservation.

Cut pineapple wedges stored in food-grade preservative solutions like ascorbic acid blends for bulk transport. Unsuitable for immediate consumption in this form, requiring processing for end use. HTS 0812.90.4000 applies to such provisionally preserved pineapples.
SO2 Gassed Bulk Pineapple Crowns
Pineapple crowns (tops with fruit attached) gassed with SO2 for preservation during long-haul shipping. Treatment makes them unsuitable for immediate consumption, intended for factory peeling/processing. Matches 0812.90.4000 for other preserved pineapples.
