Overview
This HTS category, 7105.90.00.00, encompasses dust and powder derived from natural or synthetic precious or semi-precious stones, excluding those specifically classified under other headings. This includes fine particulate matter or ground materials of gemstones that do not fall into the diamond category. The primary characteristic is the form: finely divided particles.
Unlike the sibling category 7105.10.00, which exclusively covers dust and powder of diamonds, this "Other" category accounts for all other precious and semi-precious stone types when in dust or powder form. This distinction is critical for accurate customs declarations, as different gem materials may have varying tariff rates or import regulations. Therefore, if the material is a precious or semi-precious stone, but not a diamond, and is in a dust or powder form, it will be classified here.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 7105.90.00.00 depends on the material's origin and form. For instance, this would cover fine powder of emeralds, rubies, sapphires, or synthetic equivalents when not specifically provided for elsewhere, ensuring that all forms of precious and semi-precious stone dust and powder are accounted for within the Harmonized Tariff Schedule.
