7010.90.20.30 - Of a capacity exceeding 0.15 liter but not exceeding 0.33 liter

This HTS category, 7010.90.20.30, specifically covers glass containers, produced by automatic machinery, that are designed for the conveyance or packing of goods, and possess a capacity exceeding 0.15 liters but not exceeding 0.33 liters. This includes a wide range of items such as bottles, jars, flasks, and vials that fall within this precise volume range, provided they are manufactured using automated processes and are intended for packaging or transport. The inclusion of "other containers" signifies that the scope extends beyond common vessel shapes to encompass any glass container meeting these volume and manufacturing criteria.

To differentiate this classification from its siblings, it's crucial to note the specific capacity range. It is distinct from 7010.90.20.10 (exceeding 1 liter), 7010.90.20.20 (exceeding 0.33 liter but not exceeding 1 liter), and 7010.90.20.40 (not exceeding 0.15 liter). The defining characteristic here is the intermediate volume, filling the gap between smaller and larger containers. Furthermore, the "Produced by automatic machine" qualifier at this level signifies that these containers are manufactured through high-volume, automated processes, distinguishing them from hand-blown or custom-made glass containers.

As this node is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, the focus remains on accurately identifying and classifying glass containers that meet all the preceding criteria: being of a kind used for conveyance or packing, made of glass, produced by automatic machinery, and falling strictly within the specified capacity of greater than 0.15 liters and less than or equal to 0.33 liters. Practical application of this classification would involve verifying the container's volume and confirming its automated manufacturing method.
