Overview
This HTS category, 0901.11.00.35, specifically classifies unroasted, non-decaffeinated coffee beans that have been certified as organic. The "Certified organic" designation is a key differentiator, indicating that these coffee beans have met specific standards for organic farming and production, typically verified by an accredited certifying body. This classification is applied to raw coffee beans intended for further processing, such as roasting or grinding, before consumption.
This category is distinct from its sibling, 0901.11.00.40, which covers all other unroasted, non-decaffeinated Robusta coffee beans that do not possess organic certification. While both fall under the umbrella of unroasted Robusta coffee, the critical difference lies in the verifiable organic status, which often carries specific import and labeling requirements.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 0901.11.00.35. Classification at this level is determined by the physical state (unroasted), the decaffeination status (non-decaffeinated), the coffee variety (Robusta), and importantly, the documented certification of organic origin. Importers must be prepared to provide proof of organic certification to support classification under this specific code.
