0806.10.60.45 - Other

This classification, HTS 0806.10.60.45, is designated for "Other" fresh grapes that do not fall under the specifically listed categories of red, white, or black varieties. It serves as a residual category for fresh grapes when their varietal color cannot be definitively determined or when they possess characteristics that preclude them from being classified as primarily red, white, or black. This ensures that all fresh grapes are accounted for within the tariff schedule, even those with atypical coloring or mixed characteristics.

Unlike its sibling categories which specify distinct color classifications (red, white, or black varieties), this "Other" category is intended for situations where such clear-cut distinctions are not applicable. For instance, grapes with a very pale green hue that might be mistaken for white but are distinct, or grapes with a blend of colors not predominantly fitting the other descriptions, would likely be classified here. The primary distinguishing factor remains the absence of a clear dominant varietal color that aligns with the predefined categories.

As a leaf node in the HTS structure, this category does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, the classification is finalized at this level based on the determination that the fresh grapes do not fit the more specific color-based sibling categories. Import and export professionals should ensure thorough examination of the grape's physical characteristics to accurately apply this "Other" designation when precise color classification is not possible.
