1901.90.65.00 - Other

This HTS classification, 1901.90.65.00, covers "Other" food preparations of flour, groats, meal, starch, or malt extract, specifically those that do not meet the criteria of the preceding sibling categories at this level. It functions as a residual category for goods that fall within the broader scope of heading 1901 but are not specifically provided for under more narrowly defined subheadings. Essentially, this subheading captures preparations that are not otherwise specified, encompassing a wide array of food items with a base of cereal products or dairy, as long as they meet the general content requirements of heading 1901.

This category is distinguished from its siblings, 1901.90.63.00 and 1901.90.64.00, by the absence of specific tariff provisions or additional U.S. notes that grant preferential treatment or define distinct product categories. While the siblings are designated for goods that meet particular trade agreements or specific U.S. notes related to dairy content within Chapter 4, this subheading is for all other similar preparations that do not qualify for those specific entry provisions.

As a leaf node, 1901.90.65.00 does not have any subcategories. Therefore, classification into this subheading relies on a thorough examination of the product's composition and intended use, ensuring it aligns with the general definitions of heading 1901 and does not fit into any more specific HTS code. Examples within this residual category might include certain types of processed breakfast cereals with added dairy components, or specialized food mixes for baking that do not contain significant amounts of cocoa and are not otherwise classified.
