2009.89.70.70 - Mango Juice

This HTS classification, 2009.89.70.70, specifically covers mango juice. This category falls under the broader heading of juices derived from single fruits, nuts, or vegetables that are unfermented and do not contain added spirits. While other sugars or sweetening matters may be present, the defining characteristic of this classification is its singular origin from the mango fruit.

Distinguishing this classification from its sibling, "Berry juice," is straightforward: this category is exclusively for mango juice, whereas the sibling encompasses juices from various berries. The "Other" designation at this level of the tariff schedule signifies that mango juice is not specifically enumerated in a preceding, more specific subcategory within the "Juice of any other single fruit, nut or vegetable" grouping.

As a leaf node in the HTS structure, 2009.89.70.70 has no further subdivisions. Therefore, classification into this category relies on confirming the product is indeed unfermented juice derived solely from mangoes, and does not fall under any more specific provisions for juices of other fruits, or beverages with added spirits. This ensures accurate accounting and duty assessment for imported or exported mango juice.
