Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 200799 when importing or exporting cooked preparations of fruit or nuts, such as fruit pastes or purees that don’t fit into more specific categories. For example, a shipment of apple puree without added sugar would fall under this code.

This code is particularly useful for products like fruit pastes that aren't specifically classified elsewhere in heading 2007. It contrasts with HS-6 200710, which covers jams and jellies made from specific fruits, emphasizing the broader scope of 200799.

If you're dealing with fruit or nut purees that may have varying ingredients or are not homogenized, 200799 is the right choice. This includes items like mixed fruit pastes or specialty nut purees that don't meet the criteria of other specific subheadings.

Be mindful of the differences between 200799 and 200780, which includes fruit jams and jellies with added sugar. If your product is a cooked preparation without added sweeteners, 200799 is the appropriate classification.
