These are the tariff rates as applied, the bound rates are often much higher. Except where noted, the tariff rates are ad valorem; i.e., the duty is assessed as a percentage rate of the landed value of the imported product.

3 Israel charges the U.S. a specific tariff of 1.61 New Shekels (NS)/Kg on apples and 1.82 NS/Kg on pears. Therefore, the figure in cents/Kg fluctuates with the exchange rate.

4 Under the U.S.- Korea FTA, the tariff rate on Fuji apples will be eliminated by 2031. The tariff rate listed is for apple varieties other than Fuji.
