2005.70.97.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, HTS 2005.70.97.00, encompasses olives that have been prepared or preserved through methods other than pickling in vinegar or acetic acid, and are not frozen. These olives are specifically excluded from the subcategory of green olives in containers holding less than 13 kg, drained weight. Therefore, this classification applies to olives prepared or preserved in various ways, such as brined, cured, or packed in oil or other liquids (excluding vinegar/acetic acid), provided they do not meet the specific criteria of the sibling category.

The key distinction for this "Other" classification lies in its broad application to olives prepared and preserved by any method not involving vinegar or acetic acid, and not being frozen. For instance, ripe olives in brine, Kalamata olives preserved in oil, or pitted olives in a seasoned brine would fall under this heading, provided they are not green olives in smaller packaging formats. This category serves as a residual classification for olives prepared or preserved when they don't fit into more narrowly defined subcategories.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is finalized at this point, focusing on the specific preparation method and exclusion of certain formats to accurately categorize these prepared olives.
