Overview
This HTS code, 1702.20.40.70, falls under "Other" maple syrup. It specifically designates maple syrup that is not packaged in containers exceeding 5 kilograms. This category is intended for maple syrup sold in smaller retail packaging or bulk quantities that do not meet the weight threshold of its sibling category.
The distinction between 1702.20.40.60 and this code hinges on the net weight of the packaging. While both cover maple syrup derived from maple trees, the container size serves as the primary differentiator for customs purposes. This allows for precise tracking and potential variations in duty rates or import regulations based on the scale of the product being traded.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subdivisions under this specific code. Therefore, the classification relies solely on the product being maple syrup and its packaging falling below the 5 kg threshold. Examples of products classified here would include standard consumer-sized bottles, jugs, or smaller bulk containers of pure maple syrup.
