Overview
Category 1704.90, "Other," within the "Sugar confectionery (including white chocolate), not containing cocoa" chapter, serves as a residual category for a broad range of sweet confectioneries that do not fall under more specific classifications within Chapter 17. This category encompasses a wide array of sweet treats primarily composed of sugar or other sweeteners, excluding those explicitly containing cocoa. Examples include hard candies, caramels, toffees, nougat, marzipan, and other types of sugar-based confections that are ready for consumption.
This classification is distinguished from its sibling category, 1704.10, which specifically covers chewing gum, whether or not sugar-coated. Therefore, any sugar confectionery that is not a form of chewing gum will likely be classified under 1704.90. The key differentiator lies in the primary form and intended consumption of the product.
The "Other" category is further subdivided to provide more granular classification. The subcategories, ": Confections or sweetmeats ready for consumption:" and ": Other:", indicate that further distinctions are made based on the specific type or preparation of these sugar-based confections. These subdivisions allow for more precise identification of products that share similar base ingredients but differ in their form, texture, or manufacturing process, ensuring accurate tariff application.
