1510.10.90.00 - Other 🖩

HTS code 1510.10.90.00, described as "Other," encompasses olive pomace oils that do not meet the specific weight criteria outlined in the sibling category 1510.10.10.00. This classification pertains to crude olive pomace oil where the immediate container, including its packaging, weighs 18 kg or more. These oils are derived from the residue left after the initial pressing of olives for olive oil extraction, and while they are technically crude, they are classified here when presented in larger packaging formats, distinguishing them from similar products packaged for smaller-scale retail or direct consumption where the container weight is less than 18 kg.

The key differentiator for this specific code lies in the gross weight of the immediate container. While both 1510.10.10.00 and 1510.10.90.00 refer to crude olive pomace oil, the former explicitly covers shipments where the combined weight of the oil and its immediate container is under 18 kg. Conversely, 1510.10.90.00 applies to those instances where this gross weight reaches or exceeds 18 kg. This distinction is crucial for customs authorities to accurately apply tariffs and track trade volumes based on packaging and presentation.

As a leaf node within the HTS structure, 1510.10.90.00 does not have further subcategories. Its classification is final based on the product being crude olive pomace oil and the weight of its immediate container being 18 kg or more. Practical classification relies on verifying the nature of the oil (derived from olive pomace, crude state) and confirming the net and tare weights to determine the gross weight of the immediate packaging.
