2103.20.40.40 - Other 🖩

This category, HTS 2103.20.40.40, encompasses tomato ketchup and other tomato-based sauces that do not fall under the preceding subheadings within the 2103.20.40 umbrella. It is intended for products where specific packaging details, such as container size, do not dictate classification into a more specific sibling category. Essentially, this classification serves as a residual category for tomato sauces when other more narrowly defined classifications are not applicable.

The key distinction from its sibling category, 2103.20.40.20, lies solely in the packaging. While 2103.20.40.20 specifically applies to tomato ketchup and other tomato sauces presented in containers holding less than 1.4 kg, this "Other" category covers all remaining tomato sauces and preparations that are not defined by such a weight limitation. This implies that larger retail or foodservice packaging, or bulk shipments, would typically be classified here, provided they meet the general definition of tomato ketchup or other tomato sauces.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 2103.20.40.40. Therefore, classification within this code signifies the final level of detail for these particular tomato-based preparations within the broader framework of sauces and seasonings.
