0702.00.20.32 - Roma (plum type)

This HTS subcategory, 0702.00.20.32, specifically classifies Roma (plum type) tomatoes that are fresh or chilled. These tomatoes are characterized by their elongated, oval shape and often firmer texture compared to other tomato varieties, making them particularly suitable for sauces and canning. They fall under the broader category of greenhouse-grown tomatoes, intended for import during designated seasonal periods.

Within the "Greenhouse: Other" segment, this subcategory is distinguished from its siblings by its precise varietal identification. While "Cherry" and "Grape" tomatoes are distinct in their small size and shape, and "Round, of a kind described in statistical note 2" refers to a specific size parameter, Roma (plum type) tomatoes are defined by their unique plum-like morphology. The "Other" sibling category (0702.00.20.42) would encompass any remaining greenhouse-grown tomatoes that do not fit the specific descriptions of cherry, grape, Roma (plum type), or those defined by statistical note 2.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 0702.00.20.32 is final for Roma (plum type) tomatoes meeting the specified import conditions and greenhouse cultivation criteria. Importers should ensure their documentation accurately reflects the variety to secure correct classification and duty assessment.
