0713.39.41.60 - Other white beans

This HTS classification, 0713.39.41.60, specifically covers "Other white beans" that are dried, shelled, and either skinned or split. This category encompasses a broad range of white bean varieties that do not fall under more specific subheadings within the dried beans classification. For example, while "Black beans," "Great Northern beans," "Baby lima beans," "Other lima beans," and "Pinto beans" are explicitly listed in sibling categories, this subheading serves as a catch-all for any other type of white bean that meets the general description of dried, shelled leguminous vegetables.

The key differentiator for this category lies in its inclusion of white beans that are not specifically enumerated elsewhere. This means that if a particular variety of white bean is not individually recognized by a distinct HTS code at this level, it will be classified here, provided it meets the overarching criteria of being a dried, shelled leguminous vegetable. The emphasis is on the color and the residual lack of specific enumeration for these other white bean varieties.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 0713.39.41.60. Classification decisions at this level rely on a thorough understanding of the types of beans commonly traded and their specific enumerations in preceding HTS codes. Importers and exporters must carefully identify the specific variety of white bean they are classifying and confirm that it is not listed under a more granular subheading before assigning it to this general "Other white beans" category.
