2008.30.46.00 - Other

This classification, HTS Code 2008.30.46.00, specifically covers "Other" prepared or preserved citrus fruits, falling under the broader category of mandarins. It pertains to satsumas that are presented in airtight containers and are not part of any specific quantitative import quotas. This means these products are outside the scope of preferential tariff treatments tied to annual tonnage limits.

While the sibling category 2008.30.42 addresses satsumas within certain annual import quantities, this "Other" designation applies to any satsumas in airtight containers that exceed those specified limits or are not intended to be counted against them. The defining characteristic is their preservation in sealed containers, intended to maintain freshness and extend shelf life, and their classification here is due to the absence of any specific sub-classification based on processing method or intended use beyond being preserved citrus.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification hinges on the fact that the product is a mandarin, specifically a satsuma, preserved in airtight containers. When classifying, traders should ensure that the goods precisely match the description of satsumas and are indeed packaged in a manner that qualifies as airtight, differentiating them from any other prepared or preserved citrus fruits or mandarins not meeting these specific criteria.
