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 classification covers refined sucrose (cane or beet sugar) in solid form that contains added flavoring matter, regardless of whether coloring matter is also present. Specifically, it applies to articles where the dry weight of sugar exceeds 65 percent, and which are also described by additional U.S. note 7 to Chapter 17. This note typically defines certain sugar-containing products that qualify for specific tariff treatments or fulfill particular import requirements.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 1701.91.42.00, by the defining criteria of additional U.S. note 7. While both are "Other" sugars with added flavoring and potentially coloring, 1701.91.42.00 pertains to articles described by general note 15. The key differentiator lies in the specific additional U.S. note that governs the product's eligibility and classification.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is definitive for products meeting the precise conditions outlined in this code, including the sugar content threshold, the presence of added flavoring, and the specific requirements of additional U.S. note 7 to Chapter 17. Examples might include certain types of flavored candies, lozenges, or other sugar-based confections that meet these detailed criteria.
