Overview
This HTS classification covers bamboo shoots that have been prepared or preserved through methods other than pickling in vinegar or acetic acid. These products are not frozen and are typically packaged in airtight containers to maintain their quality and extend shelf life. This category is specifically for bamboo shoots that fall outside the scope of heading 2006, which deals with vegetables preserved by sugar.
The key distinction for this classification lies in the preservation method. Unlike other vegetables in heading 2005 which may be preserved by various means, this subcategory specifically applies to bamboo shoots preserved without vinegar or acetic acid. This differentiates it from potential categories for pickled bamboo shoots.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is finalized at this level. The primary criterion for inclusion here is that the product is composed of bamboo shoots, prepared and preserved in airtight containers, and not frozen, with the exclusion of vinegar or acetic acid as the primary preservation agent. Examples might include canned bamboo shoots in brine or water.
