Overview

This HTS category, 0703.20.00.05, specifically classifies fresh garlic bulbs that have been certified as organic. This designation signifies that the garlic has been grown and produced in accordance with established organic farming standards, which typically prohibit the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and genetically modified organisms. This certification is a key differentiator and must be verifiable through appropriate documentation.

It is important to distinguish this category from its sibling, 0703.20.00.15 "Other." The "Other" category would encompass all fresh, whole garlic bulbs that are *not* certified organic. Therefore, if the garlic meets the criteria for organic certification, it must be classified under 0703.20.00.05. Otherwise, it falls under the residual "Other" classification at this level.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification decision at this point rests solely on whether the fresh, whole garlic bulbs are certified organic or not. Importers should be prepared to provide proof of organic certification to support the classification under 0703.20.00.05.
