2103.90.74.00 - Described in additional U.S. note 4 to this chapter and entered pursuant to its provisions

This HTS category, 2103.90.74.00, encompasses mixed condiments and mixed seasonings that are specifically described and governed by additional U.S. note 4 to Chapter 21. These are prepared food items that combine multiple ingredients to enhance flavor, often served alongside meals or used in cooking. The defining characteristic for classification within this subheading is adherence to the specific provisions outlined in the aforementioned additional U.S. note, which details the criteria and conditions under which certain mixed condiments and seasonings are eligible for this classification.

This category is distinct from its sibling, 2103.90.72.00, which covers mixed condiments and seasonings described in general note 15. While both are types of mixed condiments and seasonings, the operative distinction lies in the specific governing U.S. note that dictates their eligibility for classification. Additionally, it differs from the "Other" sibling, 2103.90.78.00, which serves as a residual category for mixed condiments and seasonings that do not meet the specific criteria of either 2103.90.72.00 or 2103.90.74.00.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification within 2103.90.74.00 is on meticulously ensuring that the imported product meets all the detailed requirements stipulated in additional U.S. note 4. This may involve verifying ingredient composition, specific preparation methods, or intended usage as defined by that note, in conjunction with the general scope of "mixed condiments and mixed seasonings" from the parent categories.
