Note
1.

This chapter does not cover:
(a)

Sugar confectionery containing cocoa (heading 1806);

Subheading Note
1.

For the purposes of subheadings 1701.11 and 1701.12, "raw sugar" means sugar whose content of sucrose by weight,
in the dry state, corresponds to a polarimeter reading of less than 99.5 degrees.

Additional U.S. Notes
1.

The term "degree" as used in the "Rates of Duty" columns of this chapter means sugar degree as determined by a polarimetric test.

2.

For the purposes of this schedule, the term "articles containing over 65 percent by dry weight of sugar described in additional U.S. note 2
to chapter 17" means articles containing over 65 percent by dry weight of sugars derived from sugar cane or sugar beets, whether or not
mixed with other ingredients, capable of being further processed or mixed with similar or other ingredients, and not prepared for
marketing to the ultimate consumer in the identical form and package in which imported.

3.

For the purposes of this schedule, the term "articles containing over 10 percent by dry weight of sugar described in additional U.S. note 3
to chapter 17" means articles containing over 10 percent by dry weight of sugars derived from sugar cane or sugar beets, whether or not
mixed with other ingredients, except (a) articles not principally of crystalline structure or not in dry amorphous form, the foregoing that are
prepared for marketing to the ultimate consumer in the identical form and package in which imported; (b) blended syrups containing
sugars derived from sugar cane or sugar beets, capable of being further processed or mixed with similar or other ingredients, and not
prepared for marketing to the ultimate consumer in the identical form and package in which imported; (c) articles containing over 65
percent by dry weight of sugars derived from sugar cane or sugar beets, whether or not mixed with other ingredients, capable of being
further processed or mixed with similar or other ingredients, and not prepared for marketing to the ultimate consumer in the identical form
and package in which imported; or (d) cake decorations and similar products to be used in the same condition as imported without any
further processing other than the direct application to individual pastries or confections, finely ground or masticated coconut meat or juice
thereof mixed with those sugars, and sauces and preparations therefor.

4.

For the purposes of this schedule, the term "blended syrups described in additional U.S. note 4 to chapter 17" means blended syrups
containing sugars derived from sugar cane or sugar beets, capable of being further processed or mixed with similar or other ingredients,

(i)

The aggregate quantity of raw cane sugar entered, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, under subheading
1701.11.10, during any fiscal year, shall not exceed in the aggregate an amount (expressed in terms of raw value), not less
than 1,117,195 metric tons, as shall be established by the Secretary of Agriculture (hereinafter referred to as "the Secretary"),
and the aggregate quantity of sugars, syrups and molasses entered, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, under
subheadings 1701.12.10, 1701.91.10, 1701.99.10, 1702.90.10 and 2106.90.44, during any fiscal year, shall not exceed in the
aggregate an amount (expressed in terms of raw value), not less than 22,000 metric tons, as shall be established by the
Secretary. With either the aggregate quantity for raw cane sugar or the aggregate quantity for sugars, syrups and molasses
other than raw cane sugar, the Secretary may reserve a quota quantity for the importation of specialty sugars as defined by
the United States Trade Representative.

(ii)

Whenever the Secretary believes that domestic supplies of sugars may be inadequate to meet domestic demand at
reasonable prices, the Secretary may modify any quantitative limitations which have previously been established under this
note but may not reduce the total amounts below the amounts provided for in subdivision (i) hereof.

(iii)

The Secretary shall inform the Secretary of the Treasury of any determination made under this note. Notice of such
determinations shall be published in the Federal Register.

(iv)

Sugar entering the United States during a quota period established under this note may be charged to the previous or
subsequent quota period with the written approval of the Secretary.

(i)

The quota amounts established under subdivision (a) may be allocated among supplying countries and areas by the United
States Trade Representative.

(ii)

The United States Trade Representative, after consultation with the Secretaries of State and Agriculture, may modify,
suspend (for all or part of the quota amount), or reinstate the allocations provided for in this subdivision (including the
addition or deletion of any country or area) if he finds that such action is appropriate to carry out the rights or obligations of
the United States under any international agreement to which the United States is a party or is appropriate to promote the
economic interests of the United States.

(iii)

The United States Trade Representative shall inform the Secretary of the Treasury of any such action and shall publish
notice thereof in the Federal Register. Such action shall not become effective until the day following the date of publication of
such notice in the Federal Register or such later date as may be specified by the United States Trade Representative.

(iv)

The United States Trade Representative may promulgate regulations appropriate to provide for the allocations authorized
pursuant to this note. Such regulations may, among other things, provide for the issuance of certificates of eligibility to
accompany any sugars, syrups or molasses (including any specialty sugars) imported from any country or area for which an
allocation has been provided and for such minimum quota amounts as may be appropriate to provide reasonable access to
the U.S. market for articles the product of those countries or areas having small allocations.

For purposes of this note, the term raw value means the equivalent of such articles in terms of ordinary commercial raw sugar
testing 96 degrees by the polariscope as determined in accordance with regulations or instructions issued by the Secretary of the
Treasury. Such regulations or instructions may, among other things, provide: (i) for the entry of such articles pending a final
determination of polarity; and (ii) that positive or negative adjustments for differences in preliminary and final raw values be made in
the same or succeeding quota periods. The principal grades and types of sugar shall be translated into terms of raw value in the
following manner-(A)

For articles described in subheadings 1701.11.05, 1701.11.10, 1701.11.20, 1701.11.50, 1701.12.05, 1701.12.10,
1701.12.50, 1701.91.05, 1701.91.10, 1701.91.30, 1701.99.05, 1701.99.10, 1701.99.50, 2106.90.42, 2106.90.44 and
2106.90.46 by multiplying the number of kilograms thereof by the greater of 0.93, or 1.07 less 0.0175 for each degree of
polarization under 100 degrees (and fractions of a degree in proportion).

(B)

For articles described in subheadings 1702.90.05, 1702.90.10 and 1702.90.20, by multiplying the number of kilograms of the
total sugars thereof (the sum of the sucrose and reducing or invert sugars) by 1.07.

(C)

The Secretary of the Treasury shall establish methods for translating sugar into terms of raw value for any special grade or
type of sugar, syrup, or molasses for which he/she determines that the raw value cannot be measured adequately under the
above provisions.

Raw cane sugar classifiable in subheading 1701.11.20 shall be entered only to be used for the production (other than by distillation) of
polyhydric alcohols, except polyhydric alcohols for use as a substitute for sugar in human food consumption, or to be refined and
reexported in refined form or in sugar-containing products, or to be substituted for domestically produced raw cane sugar that has been
or will be exported. The Secretary of Agriculture may issue licenses for such entries and may promulgate such regulations (including
any terms, conditions, certifications, bonds, civil penalties, or other limitations) as are appropriate to ensure that sugar entered under
subheading 1701.11.20 is used only for such purposes.

10. Heading 1703 does not include products derived from sugar cane or sugar beet and containing soluble non-sugar solids (excluding any
foreign substance that may have been added or developed in the product) equal to 6 percent or less by weight of the total soluble solids.
11. For the purposes of subheading 1704.90.25, "cough drops" must contain a minimum of 5 mg per dose of menthol, of eucalyptol, or of a
combination of menthol and eucalyptol.
Statistical Note
