0710.90.11.00 - Mixtures of pea pods and water chestnuts, other than Chinese water chestnuts 🖩

This HTS category, 0710.90.11.00, specifically classifies frozen mixtures that contain pea pods and water chestnuts. Crucially, this subheading excludes mixtures containing Chinese water chestnuts. The goods under this classification are typically found in a frozen state, having undergone either steaming or boiling in water, but are otherwise uncooked. The primary distinguishing feature is the combination of pea pods with a specific type of water chestnut, excluding the variety originating from China.

Within the broader "Mixtures of vegetables" category at this level, 0710.90.11.00 stands apart due to its precise ingredient composition. It is differentiated from its sibling category, 0710.90.91.00 ("Other"), which encompasses all other frozen vegetable mixtures not specifically enumerated elsewhere within the 0710.90 heading. Therefore, importers must carefully identify the exact components of their frozen vegetable mixtures to ensure accurate classification between these two subheadings.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 0710.90.11.00 is final once the criteria of being a frozen mixture containing pea pods and non-Chinese water chestnuts are met. Careful attention should be paid to botanical identification and country of origin for the water chestnut component to avoid misclassification.
