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 HTS classification covers sweet varieties of cherries that have been prepared or preserved. This includes cherries that have undergone processes such as canning, freezing, drying, or being made into jams, jellies, or preserves, where the predominant characteristic is their sweetness. The addition of sugar or other sweetening matter is common and expected within this category.

This category is distinct from "Tart varieties" (HTS 2008.60.00.60) which are specifically classified based on their pronounced sour or tart flavor profile. While both are prepared or preserved cherries, the sensory characteristic of sweetness versus tartness is the key differentiator for classification.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 2008.60.00.40 is determined solely by the preparation method and the sweet nature of the cherries, ensuring they are not covered by more specific provisions for other fruits or preparations elsewhere in Chapter 20.
