1202.42.90.40 - Other

This HTS category, 1202.42.90.40, encompasses shelled peanuts that are not roasted or otherwise cooked, and which are not designated for use as oil stock. This classification applies to peanuts that have been removed from their shells and may be whole or broken, but are not intended for further processing into vegetable oils or oil derivatives.

The crucial distinction for this category lies in its exclusion of peanuts intended for oil production, which are classified under 1202.42.90.20. Therefore, if the shelled and unbroken or broken peanuts are destined for direct human consumption, as ingredients in food products, or for other non-oil-related industrial uses, they fall into this residual "Other" classification.

As this is a terminal node in the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions. Classification decisions at this level hinge on the absence of oil stock designation and the state of the peanuts being shelled and either unbroken or broken, without further cooking or roasting.
