Overview
HTS Code 0208 encompasses a diverse range of "other meat and edible meat offal," distinct from the primary live animal categories found in Chapter 01. While Chapter 01 deals exclusively with live animals intended for various purposes, 0208 focuses on the processed forms – fresh, chilled, or frozen meat and offal from species not specifically addressed in the preceding headings of Chapter 02. This category serves as a residual for edible animal products that do not fit into more defined meat headings like poultry or bovine animals.
The subcategories within 0208 provide specific classifications based on the animal source of the meat and offal. For instance, 0208.10.00.00 covers products derived from rabbits and hares, differentiating them from more common meats. Similarly, 0208.30.00.00 addresses meat from primates, while 0208.40.01.00 is reserved for marine mammals such as whales, dolphins, and seals. Further subdivisions include reptiles (0208.50.00.00) and camels and other camelids (0208.60.00.00), each requiring precise classification based on the species of origin. The residual category 0208.90, "Other," is designated for any remaining edible meat and offal not specifically listed under the preceding subheadings.
