0709.60.40.66 - Yellow

This HTS category, 0709.60.40.66, specifically classifies "Yellow" sweet bell-type peppers (Capsicum annum) that are certified organic. This designation applies to fresh or chilled peppers of this variety that have met the stringent requirements for organic certification.

Within the broader classification of "Other" sweet bell-type peppers (0709.60.40), this subcategory distinguishes itself by the specific color of the pepper, being yellow. It is important to note that other colors within the sweet bell-type pepper classification, such as green (0709.60.40.60), red (0709.60.40.63), and orange (0709.60.40.69), are classified under separate subheadings. This category also differentiates itself from the general "Other" (0709.60.40.72) category for sweet bell-type peppers which covers any other colors not explicitly listed.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this specific code relies on the confirmation that the imported sweet bell-type peppers are indeed yellow and have undergone and successfully passed certification processes to be classified as organic. The physical characteristics (color) and the certification status are the primary criteria for accurate classification under this HTS code.
