1106.30.40.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 1106.30.40.00, encompasses "Other" products derived from the milling, drying, or processing of fruits of chapter 8. Specifically, it applies to flours, meals, and powders prepared from items such as nuts, seeds, and other plant-based materials not explicitly enumerated in preceding subheadings under 1106.30. This classification serves as a residual category for products of chapter 8 that have undergone the described processing and do not fit into more specific classifications within this tariff chapter.

To distinguish this category from its sibling, 1106.30.20.00, it is important to note that the sibling specifically covers flours, meals, and powders derived from bananas and plantains. Therefore, any processed fruit products of chapter 8 that are *not* banana or plantain, but are otherwise eligible for classification under 1106.30, will fall into this "Other" category. The key differentiator is the source material of the chapter 8 product used to create the flour, meal, or powder.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 1106.30.40.00. Classification within this category relies on confirming that the imported goods are indeed flours, meals, or powders derived from fruits of chapter 8, and that they are not specifically classifiable under any other subheading within heading 1106, particularly the sibling category for banana and plantain. Examples of goods that might be classified here include powders made from dates, figs, or other fruits of chapter 8, provided they are not covered by more specific tariff provisions.
