0201.20.80.10 - Bison 🖩

This HTS category specifically classifies fresh or chilled meat of bison that is presented with the bone still attached, excluding certain primal cuts. It encompasses various cuts derived from the carcass of bison, where the bone remains an integral part of the meat. This designation is crucial for accurate import and export declarations, ensuring that trade in this specific type of bison meat is properly identified and taxed.

Within the broader classification of "Meat of bovine animals, fresh or chilled: Other cuts with bone in," this subcategory is distinguished from its sibling category by its specific coverage of bison meat. While both may fall under "Other cuts with bone in," this particular code is reserved exclusively for bison, differentiating it from other bovine species that might be classified under a similar but distinct heading.

As this node is a leaf node in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, the classification is finalized at this level, meaning all fresh or chilled bison meat with bone in, not specifically enumerated elsewhere, will fall under this designation. Importers and exporters should verify that their product meets the definition of bison and is presented fresh or chilled with bone in to ensure correct classification.
