Overview
This HTS classification, 0102.31.00.20, specifically covers female purebred buffalo intended for breeding purposes. This designation is critical for accurately identifying and tracking these animals within international trade. The classification ensures that only live female buffalo that meet strict criteria for purebred status and are destined for breeding programs are included in this specific category.
This category is distinguished from its sibling, 0102.31.00.10, by the sex of the animal. While both classify purebred buffalo for breeding, this code exclusively applies to females, whereas the sibling code applies to males. The distinction is fundamental for herd management, genetic diversity planning, and agricultural statistical tracking.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 0102.31.00.20. Classification at this level relies on confirming the animal is a live buffalo, possesses purebred lineage suitable for breeding, and is female. Proof of purebred status, often through pedigree certificates from recognized breed registries, is typically required for accurate classification under this heading.
