0810.90.27.60 - Berries 🖩

This HTS category, 0810.90.27.60, specifically classifies "Berries" when they are considered "other fruit, fresh" under Chapter 8, and fall within the "other" subcategory of "other berries; tamarinds." It encompasses a broad range of small, fleshy fruits, typically round or oval, that are produced by various plants and are generally consumed whole or used in food preparations. Examples within this classification may include, but are not limited to, lingonberries, cloudberries, serviceberries, and other less commonly imported berries that do not fit into more specific HTS subheadings.

This specific classification is distinguished from its sibling category, 0810.90.27.30, which is exclusively for "Tamarinds." While tamarinds are also classified under the broader "other berries; tamarinds" heading, they represent a distinct fruit with unique botanical characteristics and culinary uses that warrant separate enumeration. Therefore, this "Berries" subheading is for all other fresh fruits that fit the general description of berries and are not tamarinds.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories. Consequently, the practical classification of goods under 0810.90.27.60 relies on accurately identifying fresh fruits as berries and ensuring they are not tamarinds, nor are they specifically classified under more detailed headings within Chapter 8 that may cover particular types of berries if they possess unique defining characteristics or are imported in a manner that warrants a more granular tariff code.
