0703.10.40.45 - Other

This HTS classification, 0703.10.40.45, designates "Other" onions and shallots, specifically those that are certified organic. This category applies to onions and shallots that do not fit into more specific classifications within the "Other" subcategory for onions and shallots, and crucially, are confirmed to be produced and handled according to organic certification standards. The certification requirement is paramount for inclusion here.

This category differs from its sibling, 0703.10.40.25 (Onions), by its specific organic designation. While 0703.10.40.25 covers all "Other" onions and shallots that are not specifically listed elsewhere in the 0703.10.40 breakdown, this category is exclusively for those meeting stringent organic certification requirements. Non-organic produce, even if it falls under the broad "Other" umbrella for onions and shallots, would not be classified here.

As a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 0703.10.40.45. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on the dual criteria of being an "other" type of onion or shallot (meaning it does not fit more precise breakdowns within the parent categories) and possessing valid certification as an organic product. Importers must be prepared to provide documentation demonstrating adherence to organic standards for goods classified under this code.
