0710.80.97.24 - In containers each holding more than 1.4 kg

This HTS classification, 0710.80.97.24, pertains to frozen broccoli that has been reduced in size, specifically when presented in retail or bulk containers with a net weight exceeding 1.4 kilograms. This category encompasses various forms of processed broccoli, such as florets or chopped pieces, that have undergone freezing to preserve them for later use. The primary defining characteristic for this subcategory is the packaging size, which distinguishes it from smaller retail packs.

Within the broader category of "Other vegetables: Other: Reduced in size," this specific classification for broccoli differentiates itself from its sibling, 0710.80.97.26, which also covers reduced-size, other vegetables but is for containers holding 1.4 kg or less. Therefore, the key differentiator is the weight threshold of the packaging.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level is determined by the type of vegetable (broccoli), its state (frozen), its preparation (reduced in size), and the specific weight of its packaging. Importers and exporters should carefully verify the net weight of their broccoli product to ensure correct classification under this or the corresponding sibling category.
