About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS classification, 1701.14.05.00, pertains to raw cane sugar that is not otherwise specified or subject to specific trade provisions. It encompasses raw sugar entered under General Note 15 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, which outlines specific conditions or requirements for its import. This category is distinct from other "other cane sugar" classifications by its explicit reference to General Note 15.

Unlike sibling categories such as 1701.14.10, which is for sugar meeting specific additional U.S. notes, or 1701.14.20.00, designated for specific industrial uses or re-export, 1701.14.05.00 covers raw cane sugar that does not fit these particular criteria but is still governed by the provisions within General Note 15. The "Other" category, 1701.14.50.00, would typically be used for raw cane sugar not otherwise specified and not falling under General Note 15 or the specific use provisions. As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories, meaning items classified here are considered to be at their most granular level of detail within this particular branch of the tariff schedule.
