Overview

This category, HTS 8215.99, encompasses a broad range of kitchen and tableware items made from base metal that do not fall into other more specific classifications within heading 8215. It includes a variety of utensils used in food preparation and service, such as serving spoons, cake servers, fish knives, butter knives, sugar tongs, and similar items designed for kitchen or dining use. The key defining characteristic of this subcategory is the absence of precious metal plating.

Unlike its sibling category, 8215.91, which specifically covers items plated with precious metal, 8215.99 is designated for base metal articles that are either unadorned or plated with non-precious metals or other materials. This distinction is crucial for accurate customs declarations, as the value and duty rates can differ significantly between precious metal plated goods and those made solely of base metal or plated with less valuable finishes.

Within this "Other" designation, further subdivisions exist to provide more granular classification. These subcategories typically include "Forks" and "Spoons and ladles," allowing for distinct categorization of these common utensils. Additionally, a more specific code, 8215.99.50.00, exists to capture "Other" items within this group, including any parts thereof, ensuring that all remaining base metal kitchen and tableware not otherwise specified are appropriately classified.
