2001.90.50.00 - Walnuts 🖩

This HTS category, 2001.90.50.00, specifically covers walnuts that have been prepared or preserved by vinegar or acetic acid. This includes walnuts in their whole form or pieces, as long as they have undergone such preservation processes. The key defining characteristic is the method of preservation, which differentiates these walnuts from other forms of prepared or preserved nuts.

It is important to distinguish this classification from its siblings. For instance, while 2001.90.42.00 covers chestnuts and 2001.90.48.00 covers Chinese water chestnuts, and 2001.90.45.00 covers mangoes, this specific code is solely for walnuts. The "Other" designations in sibling categories (like 2001.90.60.00) would encompass other types of fruits, vegetables, or nuts preserved in vinegar or acetic acid that are not specifically listed by name at this level. This particular classification ensures precise identification of preserved walnuts.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories for 2001.90.50.00. Therefore, the classification concludes at this level, encompassing all walnuts prepared or preserved using vinegar or acetic acid. For customs purposes, the physical form of the walnut (whole, halves, pieces) and the presence of the vinegar or acetic acid preservation are the primary considerations for assigning goods to this code.
