0713.40.20 - Other

This HTS category, 0713.40.20, encompasses lentils that do not fit into other specific subheadings within the broader classification of "Dried leguminous vegetables, shelled, whether or not skinned or split." It serves as a residual category for lentils not intended for sowing.

Unlike the sibling category 0713.40.10.00, which specifically identifies lentils used as seeds for agricultural planting, this category covers lentils intended for consumption as food. The distinction lies primarily in the intended use and potentially the quality or processing of the lentils, with seed lentils meeting specific purity and viability standards.

Within this "Other" category, further subdivisions exist to distinguish between different types of lentils intended for food. These include classifications for "Green lentils, including French green (dark speckled)," "Red" lentils, and this residual "Other" classification, which would capture any remaining lentil types not specifically enumerated in the preceding subcategories.
