0402.29.05.00 - Described in general note 15 of the tariff schedule and entered pursuant to its provisions

This HTS category, 0402.29.05.00, specifically covers milk and cream in powder, granules, or other solid forms, with a fat content exceeding 1.5 percent by weight. Crucially, this subheading applies to products that are described in general note 15 of the tariff schedule and are entered into commerce in accordance with its provisions. General Note 15 often pertains to specific rules or conditions for the classification of certain goods, and adherence to these stipulations is paramount for correct classification under this heading.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings, 0402.29.10.00 and 0402.29.50.00, is essential for accurate import and export declarations. While all three fall under "Other" within the "powder, granules or other solid forms, of a fat content, by weight, exceeding 1.5 percent" umbrella, 0402.29.05.00 is specifically designated for goods meeting the criteria of General Note 15. In contrast, 0402.29.10.00 pertains to products described in Additional U.S. Note 10 to Chapter 4, indicating a separate set of specific import conditions or product definitions. The residual category, 0402.29.50.00, is for all other milk and cream products meeting the general criteria that do not fall under the specific provisions of General Note 15 or Additional U.S. Note 10.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification under 0402.29.05.00 hinges entirely on meeting the definitions and requirements outlined in General Note 15, in addition to the established characteristics of the product being a solid form of milk or cream with a fat content exceeding 1.5 percent. Importers must consult General Note 15 to ensure their product's eligibility for this specific classification.
