Overview

This classification covers raw cane sugar that is certified organic and entered according to the provisions outlined in Additional U.S. Note 5 to Chapter 17. This means the sugar must meet specific criteria for organic certification, as defined by the relevant authorities, and its importation must comply with the stipulations of that note. It represents a very specific subset of raw cane sugar, distinguished by its organic status and adherence to particular import regulations.

The primary distinction of this category, 1701.14.10.20, from its sibling, 1701.14.10.40 ("Other"), lies in the explicit requirement for organic certification. While the "Other" category would encompass any remaining raw cane sugar that falls under the "Other cane sugar" heading but does not meet the organic certification criteria of this specific code, this classification is exclusively for organic product. Therefore, the presence or absence of official organic certification is the key differentiator.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level is definitive for raw cane sugar that is both certified organic and entered in accordance with Additional U.S. Note 5. Importers must ensure that their product meets all criteria for organic status and that the necessary documentation is provided to customs authorities to support classification under this specific HTS code.
