0805.50.30.40 - Other

This classification, HTS 0805.50.30.40, specifically pertains to "Other" limes that are not certified organic. It encompasses fresh or dried limes belonging to the Citrus latifolia variety, including popular types such as Tahitian limes and Persian limes, as well as any other limes fitting this botanical classification. The focus here is on the common commercial varieties of limes that do not meet the stringent requirements for organic certification.

The key distinction for this category lies in its exclusion of certified organic produce. While its sibling category, 0805.50.30.20, exclusively covers limes with official organic certification, this category applies to all other limes of the Citrus latifolia variety that are not so certified. Therefore, if a shipment of Tahitian or Persian limes is not accompanied by valid organic certification, it would fall under this "Other" classification.

As this is a leaf node within the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, there are no further subcategories. The classification is specific enough to encompass all non-organic limes of the Citrus latifolia variety, requiring no further breakdown. Importers and exporters should ensure accurate documentation regarding the organic status of their lime shipments to ensure correct classification and compliance with customs regulations.
