Overview
This HTS category specifically classifies nectarines when they are imported during periods outside of the "fresh" season for apricots, cherries, peaches, plums, and sloes. Nectarines are a variety of peach characterized by their smooth skin, as opposed to the fuzzy skin of traditional peaches. This classification distinguishes them based on their unique physical attribute of smooth skin, which is a key distinguishing feature for customs purposes.
It is important to note that this subcategory, 0809.30.40.90, differentiates nectarines from other peaches that may be classified under 0809.30.40.10. The defining characteristic for this specific classification is the smooth skin of the nectarine, regardless of its origin or variety. This distinction is crucial for accurate duty assessment and trade statistics.
As this node represents a leaf category, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification concludes with the identification of nectarines when entered at any other time. The focus remains on the specific fruit itself and its seasonal entry context.
