0703.10.40.75 - Other 🖩

This HTS classification, 0703.10.40.75, specifically covers "Other" onions that do not fall under the more specific subheadings within the "Onions and shallots" category. It acts as a residual category for onions, encompassing all varieties not separately identified, such as common bulb onions (e.g., yellow, white, red) when presented in their fresh or chilled state. The key criterion for classification here is that the product is an onion, fitting the botanical definition, and has not been further processed beyond cooling.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 0703.10.40.70, which is exclusively for shallots. While both onions and shallots belong to the *Allium* genus and share some similarities, shallots are botanically distinct and typically present as smaller, elongated bulbs with a milder flavor. This "Other" onion category is therefore reserved for the more common, larger, and often more pungent bulb onions.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level means that the goods are fresh or chilled onions that have not been dried, frozen, or otherwise processed to the extent that they would fall under different HTS chapters or more specific headings within Chapter 7. It is crucial to ensure that the product meets the general requirements for fresh or chilled vegetables under Chapter 7 before assigning this classification.
