0702.00.40.02 - Grape

This HTS classification, 0702.00.40.02, specifically covers "Grape" tomatoes that are fresh or chilled, and are grown under greenhouse conditions. These grapes are further distinguished by being certified organic and are intended for entry during the period of July 15 to August 31, inclusive, in any year. This particular subheading applies to grapes that do not fall under the more specific categories for Roma (plum type) or round varieties as defined by statistical note 2.

The "Grape" designation within this subheading highlights a specific varietal characteristic, distinguishing it from other types of tomatoes. The presence of "Certified organic" signifies that the product has undergone a recognized certification process demonstrating adherence to organic farming standards, a critical factor for trade and regulatory compliance. The time-bound entry period further narrows the scope of this classification, differentiating it from tomatoes entered outside of this specified window.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification relies on the precise definition of "Grape" tomatoes that are greenhouse-grown, certified organic, and entered during the designated period, distinct from the other described tomato types at this level.
