Overview
This HTS classification, 0103.91.00.20, specifically covers live swine whose individual weight falls within a defined range: greater than or equal to 7 kilograms but less than 23 kilograms. This category is part of the broader group of "Other" live swine (excluding swine for breeding) within Chapter 01, which pertains to live animals. The weight criterion is the sole determinant for classification within this particular sub-heading.
To differentiate this category from its siblings, it is important to note the precise weight boundaries. HTS 0103.91.00.10 applies to swine weighing less than 7 kilograms each, while HTS 0103.91.00.30 encompasses swine weighing 23 kilograms or more but still less than 50 kilograms each. Therefore, this category acts as an intermediate classification, capturing swine that have outgrown the "less than 7 kg" designation but have not yet reached the "23 kg or more" threshold.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is finalized at this level based on the defined weight parameters. Importers and exporters should ensure accurate weighing of individual animals to apply the correct HTS code and comply with customs regulations for the import or export of live swine within this weight range.
