0202.10.50.90 - Other

This HTS classification, 0202.10.50.90, specifically covers "Other" frozen meat of bovine animals in the form of carcasses and half-carcasses, beyond the specific subcategory of veal. This designation is for portions of bovine carcasses that do not fit the established classification for veal, typically referring to meat from older or adult cattle. The defining characteristic remains the frozen state of the entire carcass or a precisely divided half-carcass.

The primary distinction of this category from its sibling, 0202.10.50.10 (Veal), lies in the age of the animal. While both fall under frozen carcasses and half-carcasses of bovine animals, this "Other" category excludes meat derived from young calves, which is specifically classified as veal. Therefore, classification hinges on the age-related characteristics and maturity of the bovine meat.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories for this specific code. Classification into 0202.10.50.90 is final based on the established criteria for frozen bovine carcasses and half-carcasses, excluding veal. Importers and exporters should ensure that the product meets the physical and age-related definitions of adult bovine carcasses or half-carcasses when assigning this code.
