Sourcing this category from India
HS 1702.60 covers Sugars; fructose, other than chemically pure fructose, and fructose syrup (containing in the dry state more than 50% by weight of fructose), excluding invert sugar. It is a leaf classification, so it sets the duty line directly for goods that fall under it. India is among the world's largest sugar producers and a swing exporter of raw and refined sugar, jaggery and molasses. India exported $19K under this code worldwide in 2024, ranking #6 of 8 lines in its heading (UN Comtrade).
How to read this code
1702.60 is the six-digit HS subheading for sugars. To clear customs your destination country extends it to a full 8–10 digit code and assigns the duty rate. India's preferential trade agreements (UAE CEPA, Australia ECTA, and others) can reduce or zero out that duty on many prepared foodstuffs, beverages & tobacco lines — check our import guides for your market.
