0202.10.05.10 - Veal

This HTS classification covers veal, specifically in the form of carcasses and half-carcasses, that are frozen. The defining characteristic for inclusion under this subheading is that the veal must be described in and entered pursuant to the provisions of General Note 15 of the tariff schedule. This typically refers to specific requirements or conditions related to the importation of certain types of veal, which may involve quotas, special permits, or specific origin requirements.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 0202.10.05.90, is crucial. While both fall under frozen meat of bovine animals in carcasses and half-carcasses, the .10 subheading is reserved for veal meeting the specific conditions outlined in General Note 15. The .90 subheading would encompass all other frozen veal carcasses and half-carcasses that *do not* meet these particular provisions, essentially serving as a residual category for other types of veal.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification process concludes at this level, provided the imported veal meets the frozen criteria, is in carcass or half-carcass form, and aligns with the specific conditions stipulated by General Note 15. Importers must carefully verify that their product and documentation satisfy all requirements of General Note 15 to correctly utilize this classification.
