1509.90.40.00 - Other

This HTS category, 1509.90.40.00, encompasses "Other" edible fats and oils derived from olives, specifically those that are not otherwise specified or chemically modified. It falls under the broader classification of olive oil and its fractions, intended for consumption. This designation captures olive oil products that do not fit into more specific subheadings within the 1509.90 range.

The critical distinction for this category lies in its exclusionary nature relative to its sibling, 1509.90.20.00. While 1509.90.20.00 specifically addresses olive oil and its fractions packaged with immediate containers weighing under 18 kg, this category, 1509.90.40.00, covers all other "Other" olive oil products that do not meet that specific weight criterion for their immediate packaging. This could include larger bulk shipments or products packaged in containers exceeding 18 kg.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification within 1509.90.40.00 is final for olive oil and its fractions, whether refined or not, as long as they are not chemically modified and do not fall under the specific packaging weight limitations of its sibling category. Examples would include bulk olive oil for industrial culinary use or retail packaged olive oil where the immediate container's weight exceeds 18 kg.
