0601.20.10.00 - Hyacinth bulbs, without soil attached

This HTS category, 0601.20.10.00, specifically classifies hyacinth bulbs that are dormant, in growth, or in flower, and are imported without any soil attached. This precise exclusion of soil is a key defining characteristic for this sub-heading.

It is important to distinguish this category from its sibling, 0601.20.90.00, which covers "Other" bulbs, tubers, roots, corms, crowns, and rhizomes under the same heading. While both deal with vegetative plant propagation material, 0601.20.10.00 is reserved exclusively for hyacinth bulbs, while the "Other" category encompasses all other qualifying plant parts not specifically enumerated elsewhere at this level.

As a leaf node within the HTS, this category does not have further subcategories. Classification under 0601.20.10.00 relies on the identification of the item as a hyacinth bulb and the confirmation that it is free of soil. This ensures accurate and consistent import/export processing for this specific type of horticultural product.
