2007.99.30.00 - Guava

This HTS category, 2007.99.30.00, specifically classifies guava products that fall under the broader heading of jams, fruit jellies, marmalades, fruit or nut purées, and fruit or nut pastes, obtained by cooking. These preparations are characterized by a concentrated fruit base, often thickened through cooking, and may include added sugars or other sweetening agents. The "guava" designation ensures that only products derived primarily from this specific fruit are classified here, differentiating it from other fruit-based preparations.

Within the "Other" subcategories of jams, this code distinguishes itself from its sibling entries by its exclusive focus on guava. For instance, while 2007.99.05.00 covers lingonberry and raspberry, and 2007.99.20.00 covers apricot, this code is dedicated solely to guava. This precise specification is crucial for accurate duty assessment and trade statistics, ensuring that each fruit-based product is appropriately categorized according to its origin.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories beneath 2007.99.30.00. Therefore, the classification effectively ends at the specific fruit type, guava, within the broader context of cooked fruit preparations. The classification relies on the distinct identity and characteristics of guava as the primary ingredient in these prepared food items.
