0709.60.40.32 - Orange

This classification, HTS 0709.60.40.32, pertains to "Orange" sweet bell-type peppers when grown under greenhouse conditions and not specifically categorized as green, red, or yellow. These are distinct from other peppers falling under Chapter 7 due to their genus, Capsicum, and their classification as sweet bell varieties. The "orange" designation in the description signifies the color of the pepper at the time of classification.

Unlike its sibling categories which specify green (0709.60.40.17), red (0709.60.40.22), or yellow (0709.60.40.27) sweet bell peppers, this code captures those that are orange. The "Other" sibling category (0709.60.40.37) is reserved for sweet bell peppers that do not fit the green, red, yellow, or orange color descriptions. This detailed breakdown ensures precise identification based on visual attributes.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under HTS 0709.60.40.32 relies solely on meeting the criteria of being a greenhouse-grown, sweet bell-type pepper of the Capsicum genus, with an orange coloration, and not falling into the more specifically defined color categories. This level of specificity aids in accurate duty assessment and trade statistics.
