Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If of a Brix value exceeding 20
Higher concentration levels (Brix >20) shift classification to subheading 2009.11 for more concentrated citrus juices.
If containing juices of more than one citrus fruit
Mixtures of citrus fruits like orange and lemon are classified under 2009.39 rather than single fruit subheadings.
If with added vitamins, minerals, or other flavorings exceeding small quantities
Significant additives transform it into a food preparation under Chapter 21, not pure juice.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify Brix value using a calibrated refractometer at 20°C and include lab certification in documentation to confirm it does not exceed 20
• Provide proof of single citrus fruit origin (e.g
• orange only) to avoid reclassification as mixed juices under 2009.39
• Label containers clearly with concentration ratio and reconstitution instructions to meet FDA food safety standards
