6702.90.65.00 - Other 🖩

This category, "Other," within the classification of artificial flowers, foliage, and fruit, and articles made from them, encompasses items not specifically provided for in other subheadings of heading 6702. This includes artificial floral and foliar arrangements, individual artificial flowers, fruits, or foliage, as well as articles constructed from these artificial components, where the primary material used is neither paper, paperboard, textiles, nor man-made fibers. The key determinant for classification here is the exclusion of the materials covered by sibling categories.

It is crucial to distinguish this subheading from its sibling, 6702.90.35.00, which specifically covers artificial flowers, foliage, fruit, and parts thereof, and articles made from these, when constructed *of man-made fibers*. Therefore, if an artificial flower arrangement, for instance, is primarily made from materials like plastics, rubber, wood, or any other substance *not* classified as a man-made fiber, it would fall under this "Other" category. The physical composition and material of the artificial item are the deciding factors in differentiating between these two subheadings.

As this is a terminal node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories for this specific code. Classification terminates at this level, meaning that any product fitting the description and not being specifically classifiable under a more granular code will be assigned to 6702.90.65.00. Examples within this category could include artificial fruits made from molded plastic or painted wood, or elaborate floral arrangements constructed with wire frameworks and non-textile coverings, none of which are predominantly composed of man-made fibers.
