0710.29.40.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 0710.29.40.00, encompasses frozen leguminous vegetables, shelled or unshelled, that do not fall under the more specific sibling categories. It serves as a residual classification for a variety of frozen beans and peas not otherwise enumerated, provided they have been preserved by freezing and are in an uncooked state or have been cooked only by steaming or boiling in water.

The distinction between this "Other" category and its siblings lies in the specific identification of the legume. For instance, while 0710.29.05.00 specifically designates chickpeas (garbanzos) and 0710.29.15.00 identifies lentils, this code applies to all other leguminous vegetables in frozen form. This includes, but is not limited to, frozen green beans, wax beans, fava beans, broad beans, and various types of peas not specifically listed under separate headings.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 0710.29.40.00 relies on the accurate exclusion of goods properly classified under more specific headings within the leguminous vegetables section of Chapter 7. Importers should ensure that their frozen leguminous vegetables are indeed not chickpeas, lentils, or pigeon peas before applying this residual classification.
