0702.00.40.66 - Roma (plum type)

This HTS classification, 0702.00.40.66, specifically covers Roma or plum-type tomatoes that are fresh or chilled. These are distinct from other tomato varieties due to their elongated shape, firmer flesh, and lower moisture content, making them particularly suitable for cooking, sauces, and canning. The "Roma (plum type)" descriptor emphasizes these physical and culinary characteristics.

Within this level, the classification differentiates between various tomato forms. Unlike the smaller, rounder "Cherry" (0702.00.40.41) or "Grape" (0702.00.40.47) tomatoes, Roma tomatoes are typically larger and have a more dense, meaty texture. It also stands apart from the general category of "Round, of a kind described in statistical note 2 to this chapter" (0702.00.40.81), which encompasses standard, globe-shaped tomatoes.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions under this specific HTS code. Classification decisions at this point would rely on the precise identification of the commodity as a Roma or plum-type tomato and confirmation that it falls within the specified entry period from July 15 to August 31, inclusive, as per the parent categories.
