0713.39.21.60 - Other white beans

This HTS classification, 0713.39.21.60, specifically covers "Other white beans" when entered for consumption during the period from May 1 to August 31, inclusive, in any year. These are dried, shelled leguminous vegetables belonging to the genus *Phaseolus* (common beans) or *Vigna* (cowpeas, adzuki beans, etc.). The defining characteristic for inclusion here is their "white" coloration, distinguishing them from other specified bean varieties.

This category serves as a catch-all for white beans that do not fall under more specific sub-classifications within the broader category of "Other" beans at the 0713.39.21 level. It is crucial to differentiate these from siblings such as black beans, Great Northern beans, baby lima beans, other lima beans, and pinto beans, each of which has its own distinct classification. The primary distinction lies in the visual appearance of the dried beans.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 0713.39.21.60 relies solely on the bean's identity as a "white bean" (not otherwise specified among the preceding siblings) and the specified seasonal entry period. Importers should be prepared to demonstrate the variety and color of the beans to ensure accurate classification.
