1212.99.92.00 - Other

This HTS category, 1212.99.92.00, encompasses "Other" vegetable products that are not specifically enumerated in preceding subheadings within the 1212.99 group. It functions as a residual category for dried, ground, or otherwise prepared vegetable products of a kind used primarily for human consumption, which do not fit into more specific classifications. Examples can include certain dried edible flowers, specific types of edible fungi, or other processed plant-based materials intended for culinary use that lack a more precise HTS designation.

The key differentiator for this category is its residual nature. It is distinct from the sibling category, "Apricot, peach (including nectarine) or plum stones and kernels," which exclusively covers processed stones and kernels from these specific fruits. This "Other" subheading is reserved for items that are *not* stones and kernels of those fruits, nor are they the other specified products under 1212.99. The classification hinges on the product being a vegetable product, primarily for human consumption, and not falling into any other defined category at this level or within the broader Chapter 12.

As this is a leaf node, there are no subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification within 1212.99.92.00 is on carefully reviewing the composition and intended use of the product. Importers and exporters must ensure that the product is indeed a vegetable product, is intended for human consumption, and has been exhaustively checked against all preceding HTS codes to confirm its appropriate placement here as an "Other" classification.
