1212.99.20.00 - Nectarine 🖩

This HTS category, 1212.99.20.00, specifically classifies nectarines intended for use as a distinct commodity within the broader grouping of fruit stones and kernels. While the parent category encompasses a wide array of miscellaneous vegetable products, this subheading narrows the focus to a particular type of fruit kernel. It's important to note that "nectarine" is explicitly named here, distinguishing it from other stone fruits that might fall under related classifications.

The primary distinction of this category lies in its singular focus on nectarines as a classified product. Its sibling, 1212.99.30.00, is designated for "Other," meaning it would cover any fruit stones and kernels not specifically enumerated elsewhere within this structure. Therefore, any product that is definitively a nectarine stone or kernel would be classified here, and anything else fitting the broader description of fruit stones and kernels but *not* a nectarine would fall under the "Other" sibling.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories that subdivide the classification of nectarines. All products meeting the criteria of being nectarine stones and kernels, regardless of specific processing or origin, are consolidated under this single code. The classification relies on the accurate identification of the product as originating from a nectarine fruit.
