0202.20.06.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 0202.20.06.00, specifically captures frozen meat of bovine animals that is presented with bone still attached, and which is not otherwise classified under more specific subheadings within this chapter. It serves as a residual category for bovine meat with bone in, ensuring that such products are accounted for when they do not meet the criteria for other more detailed descriptions.

The primary distinction of this category from its sibling, "Processed," lies in the state of the meat. This classification applies to raw, unfrozen cuts of beef where the bone remains integral to the cut. In contrast, "Processed" would typically encompass meat that has undergone significant alteration beyond simple butchery, such as curing, smoking, or the addition of other ingredients.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification purposes is on confirming that the product is indeed frozen bovine meat, that it retains its bone, and that it does not fall under any preceding, more narrowly defined headings within Chapter 2 or this particular subheading. General Note 15 of the tariff schedule provides specific guidance on entry conditions and definitions that must be met for goods classified under this provision.
