0406.20.73.00 - Described in additional U.S. note 20 to this chapter and entered pursuant to its provisions 🖩

This HTS classification, 0406.20.73.00, specifically covers grated or powdered cheese of all kinds that are further described in additional U.S. note 20 to Chapter 4 and entered according to its provisions. This designation applies to cheeses that have been processed into a grated or powdered form and meet specific criteria outlined in the aforementioned note, which often pertains to specific cheeses or processing methods not captured by broader categories.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 0406.20.75.00 (Other), is crucial. While both fall under grated or powdered cheeses, this particular classification is reserved for those entries that explicitly meet the detailed requirements of U.S. additional note 20. The sibling category is for all other grated or powdered cheeses that do not fall under this specific provision. Therefore, the defining characteristic for classification here is adherence to the particular stipulations within additional U.S. note 20.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification decisions at this level depend on a thorough understanding of the specific cheeses covered by additional U.S. note 20, the permitted processing methods for grating or powdering, and the adherence to any import requirements stipulated therein. Importers must consult this additional note to confirm eligibility for this specific classification.
