0910.12.00.00 - Crushed or ground 🖩

This HTS classification, 0910.12.00.00, specifically covers ginger that has undergone processing into a crushed or ground form. This includes ginger that has been mechanically pulverized, milled, or otherwise broken down into smaller particles. The key determinant for classification within this heading is the physical state of the ginger; it must be in a state where its original form has been significantly altered through crushing or grinding.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 0910.11.00, which pertains to ginger that is neither crushed nor ground. This implies that whole ginger roots, pieces, or slices that retain their recognizable form would fall under the sibling category. The distinction hinges solely on the degree of physical processing applied to the ginger.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification ends at this level for crushed or ground ginger. Importers and exporters should ensure that the ginger product is indeed processed through crushing or grinding to correctly apply this tariff code.
