1704.90.58.00 - Other

This HTS category, 1704.90.58.00, covers "Other" sugar confectionery (including white chocolate) not containing cocoa, which are further specified as dairy products meeting the criteria outlined in additional U.S. note 1 to chapter 4. This classification applies to a broad range of sweet confectioneries that are not specifically defined by other subheadings within the 1704.90.58 group. Essentially, it acts as a residual category for sugar confectionery that contains dairy components as defined by the additional U.S. notes.

This specific subheading is distinguished from its sibling category, 1704.90.54.00, which also falls under the "Other" designation within dairy product-based sugar confectionery. The key difference lies in the specific provisions of additional U.S. notes. While both involve dairy products, 1704.90.54.00 applies to those explicitly described in additional U.S. note 10 to chapter 4 and entered pursuant to its specific provisions, implying a more narrowly defined set of goods or import conditions. This subheading, 1704.90.58.00, therefore captures dairy-containing sugar confections that do not meet the explicit requirements of note 10.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this heading hinges on ensuring the product is indeed sugar confectionery (not containing cocoa), includes dairy products as defined by additional U.S. note 1 to chapter 4, and does not qualify for the more specific provisions of the sibling category 1704.90.54.00. Examples might include certain types of fudge, caramels, or flavored boiled sweets where the presence of milk solids or dairy-derived ingredients is significant but not the sole defining characteristic, and where the specific import requirements of note 10 are not met.
