2202.10.00.75 - Other

This classification, HTS Code 2202.10.00.75, pertains to "Other" flavored waters, mineral waters, or aerated waters containing added sugar or other sweetening matter. It encompasses a broad range of non-alcoholic beverages that fit the description of heading 2202 but are not specifically categorized elsewhere within the 2202.10.00 subheadings. The defining characteristic is the presence of added sugar or other sweeteners, and flavoring, in a water-based beverage.

This specific subheading distinguishes itself from its sibling category, 2202.10.00.65, based on packaging. While 2202.10.00.65 is exclusively for such beverages packaged in aluminum containers, this "Other" category covers all other packaging types, including but not limited to plastic bottles, glass bottles, cartons, or pouches. The beverage itself remains the primary classification factor, with the container material serving as the distinguishing element at this level.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges on the accurate interpretation of the parent categories and the exclusion criteria of any other subheadings within 2202.10.00. Common examples falling under this code would include flavored sparkling waters in PET bottles or sweetened mineral waters packaged in cartons, provided they are not fruit, nut, or vegetable juices of heading 2009.
