Heading 0707 covers cucumbers, including gherkins, imported fresh or chilled. The heading is split first by the date the goods enter (four separate period windows in the tariff year), and then by whether the goods are gherkins or other cucumbers, whether they are greenhouse grown, whether they are certified organic, and the type of cucumber (Persian, long seedless, or other). General (MFN) rates in this heading run from 1.5 cents/kg in the July 1 to August 31 window up to 5.6 cents/kg in the March 1 to April 30 and May 1 to June 30 or September 1 to November 30 windows.
