1806.90.35.00 - Described in additional U.S. note 9 to chapter 17 and entered pursuant to its provisions

This classification pertains to blended syrups that contain cocoa and are specifically defined by Additional U.S. Note 4 to Chapter 17 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule. These syrups are prepared foodstuffs within Chapter 18, which covers cocoa and cocoa preparations. The key characteristic for classification under this code is that the product must meet the definition outlined in the aforementioned U.S. note, implying a specific formulation and purpose as a blended syrup.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 1806.90.39.00 ("Other"), relies entirely on adherence to the criteria set forth in Additional U.S. Note 4. While the sibling category captures other miscellaneous food preparations containing cocoa not otherwise specified, this specific code targets only those that fit the precise description of blended syrups as detailed in the note. Therefore, the primary differentiator is the precise composition and description of the product as a blended syrup within the context of U.S. tariff regulations.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 1806.90.35.00 is definitive once the product is confirmed to be a blended syrup fitting the specific conditions stipulated in Additional U.S. Note 4 to Chapter 17. This classification signifies that the product has undergone specific processing and formulation to be recognized as this particular type of cocoa-containing blended syrup for customs purposes.
