USDA-Licensed Beet Raw Sugar from Japan
Raw beet sugar in solid crystalline form with sucrose polarity of 99.5+ degrees. Since the polarimeter reading is 99.5° or higher, it does not meet the raw sugar definition in subheading note 1 and is classified as 'other' beet sugar in solid form under 1701.12.90. The product excludes centrifuged or refined sugar and contains no added substances.

Import Tips
• Note that USDA licensing is not relevant for Canadian imports; focus on CBSA requirements
• Verify the polarimeter reading; at 99.5° or higher, classify as 'other' beet sugar, not raw sugar
• Check if a tariff rate quota applies and secure an allocation to avoid over access commitment rates
