7010.90.20.10 - Of a capacity exceeding 1 liter

This HTS classification, **7010.90.20.10**, specifically addresses glass containers, such as bottles, jars, and flasks, that are designed for the conveyance or packing of goods and possess a capacity exceeding 1 liter. This category encompasses a broad range of glass receptacles that are manufactured by automatic machinery, excluding those specifically designed for perfume or other toilet preparations, or those fitted with ground glass stoppers.

The primary distinguishing factor for this classification is the volume of the container. It is differentiated from its siblings by its substantial capacity, which is strictly defined as greater than 1 liter. Sibling categories, such as 7010.90.20.20, 7010.90.20.30, and 7010.90.20.40, cover containers with progressively smaller capacities, ranging from exceeding 0.33 liter down to not exceeding 0.15 liter. Therefore, any glass container produced by automatic machinery, intended for general packing or conveyance, and holding more than 1 liter will fall under this specific HTS code.

As this node is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories that subdivide this classification. Consequently, the focus for classification purposes remains on the material (glass), the manufacturing method (automatic machine production), the general purpose (conveyance or packing of goods), and the specific capacity threshold of exceeding 1 liter. Examples of goods that would be classified here include large beverage bottles, industrial chemical containers, or bulk food storage jars, provided they meet all specified criteria.
