Industrial Beet Raw Sugar Pellets from Japan
Pelletized raw beet sugar in solid form, with a polarimeter reading of 99.6 degrees sucrose. Under subheading note 1, raw sugar must have a polarimeter reading of less than 99.5°, so at 99.6° this product is not raw sugar but rather 'other' beet sugar in solid form. The pellets are agglomerated by compression, consistent with section note 1, and contain no added flavouring or colouring.

Import Tips
• Confirm the polarimeter reading; at 99.6° it is not raw sugar under Canadian tariff definitions, so ensure classification as 'other' beet sugar
• Check if the pellets contain a binder; if binder exceeds 3% by weight, section note 1 may not apply
• Consult CBSA for tariff rate quota requirements, as over access commitment rates may apply without an allocation
