0201.20.30.00 - Other 🖩

This classification covers bovine meat, fresh or chilled, that is not categorized under the preceding subheadings within the "Other cuts with bone in" group. Specifically, it pertains to cuts with bone in that are described in additional U.S. note 3 to Chapter 2 and entered in accordance with its provisions. The key defining characteristic is that these items are processed, implying they have undergone some form of treatment beyond simple cutting, such as curing, salting, or smoking, while still retaining the bone.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, "High-quality beef cuts" (0201.20.10.00), is crucial. While both fall under "Other cuts with bone in," this particular subheading is for processed meat, whereas "High-quality beef cuts" typically refers to prime cuts of fresh or chilled beef not subject to the same processing requirements. The presence of bone remains a commonality, but the processing aspect is the differentiator.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification under 0201.20.30.00 is final for eligible processed bovine meat cuts with bone in that meet the criteria outlined in additional U.S. note 3. Importers must ensure their product documentation precisely reflects the processing and characteristics that qualify it for this specific classification to ensure compliance with customs regulations.
