Overview
This classification, HTS Code 7309.00.00.90, specifically covers reservoirs, tanks, vats, and similar containers of iron or steel with a capacity exceeding 300 liters, that are not designed for compressed or liquefied gases and are not fitted with mechanical or thermal equipment. These items may be lined or heat-insulated but are primarily distinguished by their general purpose for holding various materials, excluding specialized gas containment or active processing functions.
The distinction between this category and its sibling, 7309.00.00.30 (Tanks), lies in the specificity of "Tanks" likely encompassing a broader or more generic definition of such containers. This "Other" category acts as a residual for iron or steel containers within the defined capacity and construction parameters, but which do not fit a more precise sibling classification, or possess characteristics that warrant separate consideration beyond a general "tank" designation.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 7309.00.00.90 will depend on a thorough assessment of the container's physical attributes, intended use, material composition (iron or steel), and capacity exceeding 300 liters, ensuring it is not intended for compressed or liquefied gases and lacks mechanical or thermal equipment. Examples could include large water storage vats, industrial holding vessels for liquids or solids, or non-pressurized storage bins.
