2106 90 98

Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and the wording of CN codes 2106, 2106 90 and 2106 90 98.

Because the product is undrinkable on its own, classification as a beverage in Chapter 22 is to be excluded.

Because of its composition, the product containing higher quantities of fruit juice and fruit purée is more complex than the flavoured sugar syrups of CN code 2106 90 59.

The product should therefore be classified as a preparation for the manufacture of beverages under CN code 2106 90 98. See also HS Explanatory Notes to heading 2106, point (12).
