Coffee Extracts, Essences & Concentrates — Preparations with Basis of Coffee

Preparations made with a basis of coffee extract, essence, or concentrate — including sugar-containing formulations — are classified under 210112, with the US schedule subdividing them by sugar content and formulation type across four 10-digit lines (2101120000, 2101125400, 2101125800, 2101129000). Lines 2101125400 and 2101125800 specifically capture preparations containing more than 10% sugar, a threshold that can affect both duty treatment and labeling requirements. Vietnam and Thailand are the top two suppliers, reflecting the strong Southeast Asian ready-to-drink and coffee-mix export industry. FDA regulates these products as processed foods, and importers should verify that sugar-content declarations align with the correct tariff line.
