2004.10.80.40 - Other

This HTS code, 2004.10.80.40, specifically classifies frozen vegetables, other than potatoes, that have been prepared or preserved in ways other than by vinegar or acetic acid, and are not products of heading 2006. The scope of this category is broad, encompassing a variety of frozen vegetable preparations that do not fit into more specific subheadings. This includes, for example, frozen mixed vegetables (excluding those primarily composed of potatoes), frozen corn, frozen peas, frozen beans, and other frozen vegetable items that have undergone processing such as blanching, dicing, or pureeing.

It is important to distinguish this "Other" category from its sibling, 2004.10.80.20, which is exclusively designated for frozen french fries. While both fall under the broader classification of frozen potatoes prepared otherwise than by vinegar or acetic acid, this current code is for *all other* frozen vegetables that are not french fries and are not covered by more specific provisions. The key differentiator is the exclusion of french fries and the inclusion of a wide array of other frozen vegetable preparations.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification under 2004.10.80.40 will depend on the specific type of frozen vegetable preparation, ensuring it meets the criteria of being prepared or preserved otherwise than by vinegar or acetic acid and not being a product of heading 2006, while also not being classified as french fries.
