Code 2008 40 · Heading 2008
Prepared or preserved pears, with or without added sugar, sweeteners or alcohol, not elsewhere specified
This covers pears that have been prepared or preserved, including products with added sugar, other sweeteners or alcohol. The exact child code depends on whether alcohol or sugar is added, the sugar or real alcohol content, and the net package weight.
For example
- Canned pear halves, not prepared or preserved with vinegar or acetic acid and not made as jam, fruit jelly, marmalade, fruit purée or fruit mash
- Prepared pear pieces with added sugar, not prepared with sugar without being placed in a sugar solution and not made as jam, fruit jelly, marmalade, fruit purée or fruit mash
