Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If polarization under 99.6°
Lower polarization raw sugar falls under 1701.12.25 rather than the higher purity 1701.12.50
If chemically processed
Raw sugar containing added chemical agents moves to 1701.91.30 from pure raw cane sugar
If Mexican origin under note 9(b)(1)
Mexican USMCA goods use 9823.09.01 while Canadian goods require 9823.09.03 quota

Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain USMCA certification of origin proving Canadian production and ≥93% raw value equivalence
• Provide laboratory polarity test results confirming ≥99.6° for 1701.12.50 classification
• Monitor annual quantitative limits under note 9(b)(2) to avoid overflow into higher duty rates
