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, HTS Code 1704.90.78.00, falls under "Other" within the broader category of "Articles containing over 10 percent by dry weight of sugar described in additional U.S. note 3 to chapter 17." This specific designation is for sugar confectionery products that do not contain cocoa, are not specifically provided for in other subheadings, and meet the criteria outlined in additional U.S. note 3 to chapter 17, which generally relates to the sugar content by dry weight.

This "Other" category serves as a residual classification. It is distinct from its sibling category, 1704.90.74.00, which is reserved for articles specifically described in additional U.S. note 8 to chapter 17 and entered pursuant to its provisions. Therefore, goods classified under 1704.90.78.00 must not meet the specific criteria or entry requirements of note 8.

As a leaf node, this classification has no further subcategories. Its scope is defined by what it *is* (sugar confectionery over 10% sugar by dry weight, not containing cocoa) and what it *is not* (specifically provided for elsewhere, or covered by sibling categories with specific additional U.S. note provisions). Examples of products that might fall into this residual classification include certain hard candies, toffees, or other sugar-based confections that do not fit into more precise tariff lines but adhere to the overarching conditions of chapter 17 and its relevant U.S. notes.
