2008.99.91.90 - Other 🖩

This classification, HTS Code 2008.99.91.90, covers a broad range of prepared or preserved fruits, nuts, and other edible plant parts that do not fit into more specific categories within Chapter 20. This includes products that have undergone processes such as freezing, drying, pickling, or are presented in their own juices or syrup, provided they are not elsewhere specified. The key is that these preparations are not elsewhere classified and are preserved in a manner suitable for consumption.

This residual category is distinguished from its sibling, 2008.99.91.10, which specifically enumerates bean cake, bean stick, miso, and similar products. Therefore, any prepared or preserved fruits, nuts, or other edible plant parts that do not possess the characteristics of bean-based fermented products, such as miso or bean cake, would fall under this "Other" designation. The emphasis here is on a broad catch-all for diverse preparations not otherwise detailed.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 2008.99.91.90 is therefore based on the exclusion of products from more specific headings and subheadings within the HTS. Importers and exporters should carefully consider the specific nature and processing of their goods to ensure they are not more accurately classified elsewhere, particularly within other 2008 subheadings or the preceding chapters of Section IV.
