Overview
This HTS classification, 0202.30, specifically covers "Boneless" meat of bovine animals that has been frozen. This designation is crucial as it differentiates these products from those where the bone is still present. It represents a significant processing step in the preparation of frozen beef, making it ready for further fabrication or direct consumption after thawing.
Distinguishing 0202.30 from its siblings is straightforward. Category 0202.10 pertains to whole or half carcasses, which are unprocessed in terms of bone removal. Category 0202.20, conversely, covers other cuts of frozen beef that still contain bone. Therefore, 0202.30 is the specific classification for frozen beef where all bone has been removed.
Within the 0202.30 classification, further subdivisions exist to refine the entry. These subcategories, such as those described in general note 15 or additional U.S. note 3, and the residual category 0202.30.80.00 for "Other," acknowledge specific regulatory treatments, quota allocations, or unique preparation methods that may apply to boneless frozen beef. These distinctions are critical for accurate customs declaration and duty assessment.
