1211.90.20.00 - Crude or not manufactured

This HTS subheading, 1211.90.20.00, specifically classifies dried mint leaves that are crude or not manufactured. These are raw agricultural products intended for use in industries such as perfumery, pharmaceuticals, or as ingredients in insecticides, fungicides, or similar applications. The key characteristic for this classification is the form of the product – dried, unadulterated mint leaves.

Within the "Other" category (1211.90) of plants used for perfumery, pharmacy, or similar purposes, this subheading is distinct from its sibling, 1211.90.40, which covers other, unspecified crude or unmanufactured plants under this chapter. Therefore, if the product is indeed dried mint leaves, it falls here, whereas other crude plant materials not specifically enumerated would likely be classified under the "Other" subheading.

As a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories branching from 1211.90.20.00. Classification concludes at this level, focusing on the definitive identification of the product as crude or unmanufactured dried mint leaves. This means the exact physical state and the absence of further processing are the primary determinants for assigning goods to this particular classification code.
