0406.10.84.00 - Described in additional U.S. note 16 to this chapter and entered pursuant to its provisions

This HTS classification, 0406.10.84.00, specifically covers "Other" fresh (unripened or uncured) cheese and curd that meet the criteria outlined in additional U.S. note 16 to Chapter 4 and are entered in accordance with its provisions. This broad designation indicates that the cheese and curd falling into this category do not fit into more specific subcategories within the fresh cheese classifications. The "other" designation at multiple hierarchical levels signifies that these are residual entries for fresh cheeses not otherwise detailed.

Distinguishing this classification from its sibling, 0406.10.88.00 (also "Other"), requires careful consideration of the additional U.S. notes and any specific rulings or interpretations that might further refine the distinction between these two "other" categories. Without further specific criteria within additional U.S. note 16, the classification may depend on specific composition, production methods, or intended use as detailed by Customs and Border Protection.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is definitive at this level, meaning that goods falling under 0406.10.84.00 are considered the final classification for those particular fresh cheeses and curd. The focus for classification here will be on meticulously verifying that the product indeed fits the general definition of fresh cheese and curd and fully adheres to the specific requirements of additional U.S. note 16.
