0709.60.40.13 - Other

This HTS code, 0709.60.40.13, classifies certified organic sweet bell-type peppers (Capsicum annum) that fall under the broader category of "Other" within greenhouse-grown peppers. These peppers are distinguished from their sibling categories by their certified organic status. While siblings like "Green," "Red," "Yellow," and "Orange" refer to specific color variations of sweet bell peppers, this subcategory focuses on the cultivation method and assurance of organic production standards.

The "Certified organic" designation signifies that these peppers have met stringent criteria for organic farming, typically involving adherence to specific agricultural practices, avoidance of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, and verification by a recognized organic certification body. This classification is crucial for importers and exporters to accurately declare the origin and production method of the goods, impacting potential tariffs, quotas, and specific import/export regulations related to organic products.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification ends with the specification of certified organic sweet bell-type peppers grown in a greenhouse. The primary distinguishing factor remains the verified organic certification, setting these peppers apart from conventionally grown sweet bell peppers of any color.
