Chapter 7 covers edible vegetables and certain roots and tubers: fresh, chilled, frozen, dried or provisionally preserved (in brine or sulphur water, for example), but not vegetables that have been fully cooked or otherwise prepared into a dish, which fall under chapter 20. Classification tip: Potatoes, onions and other staple vegetables often carry seasonal tariff-rate quotas in major import markets, so check the applicable period alongside the code.

Other headings in chapter 07
The wording above is the Harmonized System nomenclature as published by the World Customs Organization, HS 2022 edition. It is a classification reference, not a tariff: it carries no duty rates, and it stops at six digits — the importing country adds its own beyond that.
Classification is decided by the General Rules of Interpretation and the section and chapter notes, and it is the importing country’s customs authority that makes it binding.

Heading 07.14 covers manioc, arrowroot, salep, jerusalem artichokes, sweet potatoes and similar roots and tubers with high starch or inulin content; fresh, chilled, frozen or dried, whether or not sliced or in the form of pellets; sago pith. It is part of chapter 07 (vegetables and certain roots and tubers; edible), and it is subdivided into 6 six-digit subheadings — the level you actually declare.
Pick one of the 6 subheadings below. Those six digits are what customs recognises internationally; the importing country may extend them to eight or ten in its own tariff schedule.
The General Rules of Interpretation, read together with the notes to Section II and to chapter 07. A description that reads right is not enough on its own — the notes routinely pull goods out of the chapter they obviously belong to and put them somewhere else. Where duty or licensing turns on the answer, ask the importing country’s customs authority for a binding ruling.
A wrong or missing code is one of the common reasons customs holds a container, and a hold shows up as a milestone that stops moving. Watch for it in the container tracking app, on the air waybill in the air cargo tracker, or through the tracking API.
