6802.99.00 - Other stone

This category, HTS Code 6802.99.00, encompasses "Other stone" that has undergone working, but does not fall into the specific categories of worked monumental or building stone, mosaic cubes, or artificially colored granules, chippings, and powder of natural stone. This classification is for natural stones that have been shaped, cut, or otherwise processed but are not specifically classified under headings like marble, travertine, alabaster, calcareous stone, or granite. It covers a broad range of worked stones that do not fit into more precise sibling classifications.

Distinct from its siblings, this category does not include worked marble, travertine, or alabaster (6802.91), other calcareous stone (6802.92.00.00), or granite (6802.93.00). The classification hinges on the specific mineralogical composition and common designation of the stone. If the worked stone is not identifiable as marble, travertine, alabaster, or granite, and does not meet the criteria for other calcareous stones, it is likely to be classified under this residual "Other stone" provision.

The subcategories within 6802.99.00 further refine this classification. "Monuments, bases and markers" (6802.99.00.30) specifically addresses worked stone articles intended for memorial or foundational purposes, regardless of their specific stone type. The residual "Other" subcategory is for any remaining worked natural stones that do not qualify for the monument-specific designation, ensuring a comprehensive classification for all forms of processed stone not otherwise enumerated.
