Overview

This HTS classification, 1701.12.05.00, specifically covers raw beet sugar that is not containing added flavoring or coloring matter. The key characteristic is its origin from beet and its unprocessed state, intended for further refining or processing into various sugar products. This category is defined by its adherence to general note 15 of the tariff schedule, indicating specific import requirements or conditions that must be met for its classification under this code.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling categories primarily by its specific qualifying conditions. 1701.12.10.00, for instance, is designated for raw beet sugar that meets the criteria outlined in additional U.S. note 5 to this chapter, suggesting a more specific set of regulatory or quantity-based distinctions. The "Other" category, 1701.12.50.00, serves as a residual classification for raw beet sugar that does not fit the precise requirements of the other subcategories at this level.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification of goods under 1701.12.05.00 relies on fulfilling the conditions described in general note 15 and ensuring the product is raw beet sugar without any added flavorings or colorings. This ensures accurate tariff application for this specific type of raw sugar entering commerce.
