About this HS Code
HS Code 1704 covers sugar confectionery not containing cocoa. The classification includes chewing gum (1704.10) and other sugar confections (1704.90) such as pastilles, gums, fondants, caramels, toffees, and hard candies. This division represents a significant value-added food processing sector with both mass market and artisanal products. Major exporters include Germany, Belgium, and Mexico. Unlike chocolate confectionery (HS 1806), these products are characterized by sugar as the primary ingredient without cocoa content. International trade faces various technical barriers including maximum levels for food additives, allergen labeling requirements, and in some markets, sugar taxes aimed at reducing consumption.
