Overview
This HTS classification, 7010.90.50.05, specifically pertains to glass containers of a capacity exceeding 1 liter that are designed for the conveyance or packing of goods. The defining characteristic of this subcategory is its requirement that the container must possess a mouth with an outer diameter measuring 38 millimeters or greater. This precise measurement criterion is crucial for distinguishing these larger-mouthed containers from other types of glass receptacles.
Within the broader category of "Other containers (with or without their closures)" and "Of a capacity exceeding 1 liter," this particular code differentiates itself from its sibling, 7010.90.50.09, which covers "Other." While the sibling category encompasses a range of other glass containers exceeding 1 liter capacity without the specified mouth diameter, this code narrows the focus to those with a significant opening, suggesting their suitability for specific packing or dispensing needs.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories branching from this specific code. Therefore, classification is determined solely by the material (glass), the type of product (container for conveyance or packing), the capacity (exceeding 1 liter), and the specified mouth diameter (38 mm or more). Examples falling under this classification would include large glass carboys or demijohns with broad openings used for transporting liquids or bulk goods.
