Overview
This HTS category, 7010.90.50.09, encompasses "Other" glass containers of a capacity exceeding 1 liter that do not meet the specific criteria of the sibling category. These are typically larger glass vessels designed for the conveyance or packing of goods, such as industrial chemical containers, large beverage bottles, or substantial storage jars. The key defining characteristic for inclusion here is their capacity, which must be greater than 1 liter, and their form not fitting into more specific descriptions within heading 7010.
This category is distinguished from its sibling, 7010.90.50.05, which specifically covers containers "Having a mouth with an outer diameter of 38 mm or more." Therefore, 7010.90.50.09 will include glass containers over 1 liter that have mouths with an outer diameter *less than* 38 mm, or those whose mouth diameter is not a defining classification criterion. The emphasis remains on the container's function for packing and conveyance and its substantial volume.
As this is a leaf node, there are no subcategories to introduce. Classification under this code signifies that the item is a glass container of over 1-liter capacity and does not fit into any more specific subheadings, including those defined by mouth diameter. For instance, large glass demijohns or carboys intended for bulk liquid transport, provided their mouths are less than 38mm in outer diameter, would fall under this classification.
