Last updated: April 2026 dataTariff-rate quota mechanics are central to classifying raw cane sugar under this heading, which covers solid, unrefined cane sugar without added flavoring or coloring that meets the specific criteria of Subheading Note 2 to Chapter 17. The US schedule breaks this into five 10-digit lines — including 1701130000, 1701130500, 1701131000, 1701132000, and 1701135000 — distinguishing quota-eligible entries, polyhydric alcohol uses, and re-export refining programs. Colombia leads US supply under this heading, followed by Panama and El Salvador, making Latin American origin documentation and TRQ certificate management routine compliance tasks for importers. FDA oversight applies to sugar as a food ingredient, and entry requires accurate HTS classification to determine whether in-quota or over-quota duty rates apply.

Subheading Note 2 to Chapter 17 defines specific technical criteria — primarily relating to polarimetric readings and sucrose content — that determine whether a raw cane sugar shipment falls under heading 170113 versus the NESOI heading 170114. Importers must verify lab analysis results against these criteria before filing entry, as misclassification affects which TRQ allocation and duty rate applies.
Line 1701132000 covers raw cane sugar entered for polyhydric alcohol production or for refining and re-export. Importers using this provision must meet CBP and USDA program requirements, including bond obligations and end-use certification, to qualify for the associated duty treatment rather than standard in-quota or over-quota rates.
