23 declarable lines

Heading 2007 covers jams, fruit jellies, marmalades, and cooked fruit or nut purees and pastes, whether or not sweetened. It splits first into homogenized preparations (2007.10), citrus fruit products (2007.91), and all other fruit (2007.99). Within 2007.99 the breakouts run by product type (jams, pastes and purees, fruit jellies) and then by the named fruit.

How to choose the right subheading

Whether the product is a homogenized preparation put up for retail sale, which goes to 2007.10
Whether the fruit base is citrus, which sends it to 2007.91
The product type within 2007.99: jam, paste or puree, or fruit jelly
The fruit named in the subheading, such as strawberry, raspberry, apricot, guava or mango
Whether the product is in fact cooked; uncooked products and juices sit in other headings
