0713.39.21.70 - Other 🖩

This HTS classification, 0713.39.21.70, covers "Other" dried, shelled leguminous vegetables, specifically beans (Vigna spp., Phaseolus spp.) not otherwise specified. This category serves as a residual for beans that do not fit into the more specific sibling classifications listed, such as black beans, Great Northern beans, lima beans, or pinto beans. The key differentiating factor is the absence of specific varietal or descriptive attributes that would place the beans into a more narrowly defined subcategory.

The critical determinant for this specific classification is the time of entry. These "other" dried beans are subject to specific tariff treatment if they are entered for consumption in the United States during the period from May 1 to August 31, inclusive, of any given year. This seasonal designation is a crucial factor in correctly applying the tariff rate and any associated regulations for these otherwise unclassified dried beans.
