Overview
HTS code 2009.29.00 falls under the broader category of fruit or nut juices, unfermented and not containing added spirit. Specifically, this heading pertains to grapefruit juice and pomelo juice that do not meet the criteria for the preceding sibling category, 2009.21. The primary distinguishing factor between 2009.29 and 2009.21 is the Brix value. While 2009.21 is reserved for juices with a Brix value not exceeding 20, 2009.29.00 encompasses all other grapefruit and pomelo juices, irrespective of their sugar concentration as measured by Brix.
This category is further subdivided to provide more granular classification for these juices. The subcategories distinguish between frozen and non-frozen (other) forms of grapefruit and pomelo juice. Classification into either 2009.29.00.20 (Frozen) or 2009.29.00.40 (Other) will depend on the physical state of the product at the time of importation or exportation. This distinction is crucial for inventory management, potential tax implications, and adherence to specific import/export regulations that may vary based on whether the product is preserved through freezing or presented in another state.
