0406.10.95.00 - Other

This HTS classification, 0406.10.95.00, pertains to "Other" fresh (unripened or uncured) cheese and curd, specifically when these products do not fall under the preceding subheadings within the "Fresh (unripened or uncured) cheese, including whey cheese, and curd" category. It acts as a residual category for fresh cheeses and curd that have not been specifically defined or categorized by more specific criteria, such as those based on butterfat content or milk source.

To distinguish this category from its siblings, it's important to note that sibling categories often specify exclusions or inclusions based on key compositional elements. For instance, other sibling categories might differentiate based on butterfat percentages (e.g., 0.5% or less), or the absence of specific milk types (like cow's milk) in soft ripened cheeses. This "Other" category is for fresh cheeses and curd that do not meet the defining characteristics of these more specific sibling classifications.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification of a product within 0406.10.95.00 relies on determining that it is indeed fresh cheese or curd, and that it does not fit into any more precisely defined subheadings at the 10-digit level within the fresh cheese and curd category. This often involves careful examination of product composition, intended use, and processing methods to confirm it is not covered elsewhere.
