2005.70.04.60 - In containers each holding 8 kg or less, drained weight 🖩

This HTS category, 2005.70.04.60, specifically classifies green olives that have been prepared or preserved in a saline solution, are not pitted, and are presented in containers with a drained weight of 8 kilograms or less. The key defining characteristics are the color of the olives (green), the preservation method (saline solution), the absence of pitting, and the specific weight limitation of the drained contents within their packaging.

This classification distinguishes itself from its sibling category, 2005.70.04.30, by the weight of the drained olives in the container. While both are green, not pitted olives in a saline solution, the sibling category applies to containers holding more than 8 kilograms of drained olives. The 8-kilogram threshold is the primary determinant for assigning goods to this specific sub-classification.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is definitively determined by the established criteria: green, non-pitted olives preserved in saline solution, with a drained weight not exceeding 8 kilograms per container. This level of specificity ensures precise tariff application for this particular presentation of prepared olives.
