About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS category, 0105.94.00.00, specifically covers live chickens, which are a distinct type of poultry. Within the broader heading for live poultry, this subheading focuses solely on chickens, differentiating them from other fowl such as ducks, geese, turkeys, and guinea fowl that are classified under other headings within the 0105 chapter. The classification is based on the species of bird.

The immediate sibling category, 0105.99.00.00, encompasses "Other" live poultry. This distinction means that while 0105.94.00.00 is exclusively for chickens, the "Other" category would capture any live poultry not explicitly listed or covered by preceding subheadings within 0105. Therefore, if an import consists of live chickens, it falls under 0105.94.00.00; if it includes other types of live poultry not specifically itemized, it would be directed to the "Other" category.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories or subdivisions for this specific HTS code. Classification under 0105.94.00.00 is definitive for live chickens, and no further breakdown by breed, age, or sex is provided at this level of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule. The primary classification criterion is the identification of the animal as a chicken.
