0901.22.00.90 - Other

This classification covers decaffeinated coffee that is roasted but does not fall into the specific subcategories of Arabica or Robusta. It encompasses all other types of roasted, decaffeinated coffee beans, whether whole or ground, that are not classified under the more specific sibling categories.

The distinction between this category and its siblings, "Arabica" and "Robusta," lies in the varietal identification of the coffee bean. While Arabica and Robusta refer to distinct species of coffee plants known for their characteristic flavor profiles and growing conditions, this "Other" category is for roasted decaffeinated coffee whose varietal is not specified or is of a type not readily identifiable as pure Arabica or Robusta.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this HTS code depends on the absence of specific varietal identification. Importers and exporters should ensure that if the coffee is identifiable as either Arabica or Robusta, it is classified under the respective sibling code. This code serves as a residual category for roasted, decaffeinated coffee that does not fit those more defined varietal classifications.
