Overview
HTS code 9706.10.00.60, described as "Other," serves as a residual category within the classification of antiques of an age exceeding 250 years. This classification is intended for items that meet the age requirement of over 250 years but do not specifically fall under the more defined sibling categories such as silverware or furniture. Therefore, it encompasses a broad spectrum of antique artifacts, objects, or works that possess a historical significance due to their age and are not otherwise specifically enumerated at this level of detail.
The distinction from sibling categories is crucial for accurate classification. While 9706.10.00.20 is exclusively for antique silverware and 9706.10.00.40 is designated for antique furniture, this "Other" category captures all other antique items exceeding 250 years that do not fit these specific definitions. This might include antique ceramics, glass, textiles, scientific instruments, tools, or other miscellaneous antique objects whose primary function or material does not align with the more specialized sibling entries.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification within 9706.10.00.60 relies on the determination that an item is demonstrably over 250 years old and does not qualify for classification under any more specific HTS provision within Chapter 97, particularly within the 9706.10.00 subheading. The primary classification criteria will therefore focus on verifying the age of the item and confirming its exclusion from more narrowly defined antique categories.
