0805.10.00.60 - Other

This HTS category, 0805.10.00.60, encompasses fresh or dried oranges that do not qualify for classification under the specific "certified organic" designation. It serves as a residual category for all other fresh or dried oranges not otherwise specified within this subheading. The primary characteristic for inclusion here is the botanical classification as an orange, with no specific limitations on variety beyond that.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 0805.10.00.50, is straightforward. While both classify oranges, the "certified organic" category is reserved for produce that has undergone a formal certification process demonstrating adherence to organic farming standards. Therefore, this "Other" category includes all conventionally grown, non-certified organic oranges.

As this is a leaf node within the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, there are no further subcategories. Classification into this specific HTS code relies on the absence of the "certified organic" attribute, ensuring that all remaining oranges fall under this general designation. Importers and exporters should carefully consider the certification status of their orange shipments to ensure accurate classification.
