1509.30.20.90 - Other

This classification covers virgin olive oil that is packaged in containers weighing less than 18 kilograms, including the weight of the immediate packaging. This category specifically applies to olive oil meeting the definition of "virgin olive oil," which is obtained solely by mechanical or other physical means under conditions, particularly thermal conditions, that do not lead to alteration of the oil. The oil must not have undergone any treatment other than washing, decantation, centrifuging, or filtration.

The distinction between this classification and its sibling, 1509.30.20.30 (Certified organic), lies in the organic certification. While both subcategories pertain to virgin olive oil weighing under 18 kg with its immediate container, 1509.30.20.30 is exclusively for virgin olive oil that has undergone and passed a certified organic production process. This category, "Other," encompasses all virgin olive oil meeting the weight and packaging criteria that is not certified organic.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this code relies on ensuring the product meets the specified criteria for virgin olive oil, is packaged as described, and does not fall under any other specific subheading within the HTS code.
