2004.90.85.60 - Peas

This HTS classification, 2004.90.85.60, specifically covers peas that have been prepared or preserved other than by vinegar or acetic acid and are presented in a frozen state. This heading encompasses goods that are not fresh or simply dried, but have undergone some processing such as blanching, sorting, or freezing to extend their shelf life and maintain quality. The key criteria for inclusion are the nature of the product as peas and their frozen preservation method, excluding those preserved through acidification.

This category is distinct from its sibling entries based on the specific vegetable type. For instance, it differentiates from 2004.90.85.20 (Carrots) and 2004.90.85.40 (Sweet corn) by its exclusive focus on peas. It also stands apart from the "Garlic" entry and the broader "Other, including mixtures" category (2004.90.85.95) by requiring the product to be solely peas.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is definitive for frozen peas prepared or preserved in a manner other than by vinegar or acetic acid. This means any product meeting these specific criteria will fall under this code, and no further subdivisions are necessary to distinguish between different types or preparations of frozen peas.
