CPTPP rate
HS 0703 covers onions, shallots, garlic, and leeks. Onion sets, green onions/shallots, and dry shallots each carry a seasonal per-kilogram MFN duty that CPTPP eliminates. Garlic (0703.20) is already Free at MFN and shows no additional CPTPP saving.
Part of our Perishables commodity guide →What actually qualifies: wholly obtained
Fresh produce generally qualifies as CPTPP-originating under the simplest rule in the agreement: "wholly obtained" — grown or harvested entirely within a CPTPP member country's territory. There's no tariff-shift or regional-value-content calculation to run for a shipment of produce grown start-to-finish in a CPTPP country.
The real complexity in this category sits almost entirely on the tariff-rate-quota side — the seasonal import windows noted on several codes below — not on the origin determination itself.
