Overview

This HTS classification specifically covers celery that has been reduced in size, distinguishing it from whole or larger pieces of celery. "Reduced in size" typically refers to celery that has been cut, chopped, sliced, or otherwise processed to be smaller than its original form. This category encompasses such preparations for ease of use in culinary applications or further processing.

Within the broader category of "Celery other than celeriac," this subcategory focuses solely on the processed form of celery. It is important to differentiate this from other potential preparations of celery, such as celeriac (celery root), which is classified separately. The key distinguishing factor for 0709.40.20.00 is the physical state of the celery as being intentionally reduced in size.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on whether the celery is "reduced in size" and not celeriac. Examples of goods that would fall under this heading include pre-cut celery sticks, chopped celery for mirepoix, or sliced celery intended for salads or garnishes, provided they are fresh or chilled.
