0709.60.40.84 - Yellow

This HTS classification covers sweet bell-type peppers (Capsicum annum) that are classified as "Yellow." This designation refers to the characteristic color of the pepper when it reaches its mature state, excluding peppers that are green (immature) or predominantly red or orange. These peppers are imported or exported fresh or chilled and fall under the broader category of "Other vegetables."

The distinction between this subcategory and its siblings is based solely on the mature color of the bell pepper. While all fall under sweet bell-type peppers, this specific code is reserved for those exhibiting a yellow hue. This allows for granular tracking of different colored bell pepper varieties in international trade.

As a leaf node in the HTS, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 0709.60.40.84 is on ensuring the item is indeed a sweet bell pepper, fresh or chilled, and its mature color is yellow. Trade professionals should be mindful of the specific color attribute when making declarations for these goods.
