1806.10.34.00 - Described in additional U.S. note 1 to this chapter and entered pursuant to its provisions 🖩

This HTS subcategory, 1806.10.34.00, encompasses cocoa powder with added sugar or other sweetening matter, specifically those formulations containing 65 percent or more but less than 90 percent by dry weight of sugar. These products are recognized under Additional U.S. Note 1 to Chapter 18 and are entered pursuant to its specific provisions, indicating a precise regulatory framework for their classification. This detailed specification ensures that only products meeting these exact sugar content parameters and fulfilling the additional note's requirements are assigned this code.

The distinction between this "Other" category and its sibling, 1806.10.38.00, lies in the precise percentage of sugar content. While both fall under cocoa powder with added sugar and the 65-90% sugar range, the sibling category likely covers variations not explicitly accounted for by the specific criteria outlined in Additional U.S. Note 1. This highlights the granular nature of HTS classification, where minute differences in composition can lead to distinct tariff codes.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus remains on the precise definition and application of this specific code. Examples of products that would fall here include certain types of sweetened cocoa mixes for beverages or baking where the sugar content is a critical defining factor and falls within the specified, narrowly defined range, and meets the conditions of Additional U.S. Note 1.
