0201.10.10 - Described in additional U.S. note 3 to this chapter and entered pursuant to its provisions

This HTS category, 0201.10.10, specifically covers carcasses and half-carcasses of bovine animals that are fresh or chilled, and are entered for consumption under the provisions outlined in additional U.S. note 3 to Chapter 2. This note provides specific conditions and requirements that must be met for goods to be classified under this heading.

This classification is distinct from its sibling categories. Unlike 0201.10.05, which applies to goods entered under general note 15, and 0201.10.50, which is a residual category for "other" carcasses and half-carcasses, 0201.10.10 is reserved for those meeting the detailed criteria of additional U.S. note 3. Therefore, importers must carefully review and adhere to the stipulations of this specific additional U.S. note to ensure correct classification.

Further subclassification within 0201.10.10 is based on the type of bovine animal. The subcategories are 0201.10.10.10 for veal, which refers to the meat of young bovine animals, and 0201.10.10.90 for "other," which encompasses carcasses and half-carcasses of other, typically older, bovine animals. This distinction is important for statistical tracking and potential tariff rate differences.
