2202.99.10.00 - Chocolate milk drink

This classification encompasses milk-based beverages that are specifically flavored to resemble chocolate. These products are typically aqueous preparations containing milk or milk constituents, to which flavoring agents, such as cocoa or chocolate extracts, have been added. The intended purpose of these beverages is for consumption as a non-alcoholic drink, distinct from pure milk or dairy products.

Within the broader category of "Other: Other: Milk-based drinks," this specific tariff line is for those products characterized by their chocolate flavoring. It differentiates from other milk-based drinks which might be flavored differently or not flavored at all. The key distinguishing factor is the presence of chocolate as the primary flavoring agent, which dictates its placement under this specific sub-heading.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Classification under HTS Code 2202.99.10.00 is final for chocolate milk drinks that meet the criteria of being a non-alcoholic beverage containing milk and flavored with chocolate. Importers and exporters should ensure that the product's composition and labeling accurately reflect this chocolate flavoring to avoid misclassification.
