0804.50.60 - If entered at any other time

This HTS category, 0804.50.60, specifically covers fresh guavas, mangoes, and mangosteens that do not meet the seasonal entry criteria outlined in its sibling category. This means that if these fruits are imported outside of the defined September 1st to May 31st period, they will fall under this classification. The primary characteristic for classification here is the freshness of the specified fruits.

The distinction between this category and its sibling, 0804.50.40, rests solely on the timing of importation. While both concern fresh guavas, mangoes, and mangosteens, the latter is designated for imports occurring during a specific, broader window of the year. Consequently, 0804.50.60 acts as the residual classification for these fresh fruits when they are entered at any other time, ensuring that all such imports are accounted for.

Within this classification, further subdivisions exist to refine the classification based on the specific type of fruit. The subcategories differentiate between mangoes and mangosteens, with an additional "Other" category to capture any guavas that might fall under this broader classification without a specific code. This hierarchical structure allows for more granular tracking and statistical reporting of these distinct, yet related, tropical fruits.
