2008.19.90.90 - Other

This classification, HTS 2008.19.90.90, covers "Other" prepared or preserved nuts, peanuts, and other seeds, whether or not mixed together, that do not fit into more specific subcategories within heading 2008.19. It encompasses a wide array of edible nuts, seeds, and peanuts that have undergone preparation or preservation processes beyond simple drying or roasting, such as canning, pickling, or being incorporated into preparations like pastes or butters, provided they are not elsewhere specified.

This broad "Other" category serves as a residual classification for mixtures of nuts, peanuts, and seeds, or individual varieties not explicitly listed under more granular HTS codes at the same level. For instance, it distinguishes itself from the sibling category 2008.19.90.10, which is specifically designated for Macadamia nuts. Therefore, while macadamia nuts, when prepared or preserved in a similar fashion, would fall under 2008.19.90.10, other nuts, seeds, or mixtures thereof not otherwise specified will be classified here.

As a leaf node, this HTS code does not have further subcategories. Classification within 2008.19.90.90 will therefore depend on the specific composition and preparation method of the product, ensuring it aligns with the general provisions for prepared or preserved nuts, peanuts, and seeds not elsewhere specified or included in Chapter 20. The key is to identify if the product is indeed a nut, peanut, or seed, has been prepared or preserved, and does not meet the criteria for any more specific HTS code within this heading.
