Overview
Category 0208.90 serves as a residual classification for "Other" meat and edible meat offal that does not fall under the more specific subheadings within heading 0208. This heading broadly covers meat and edible offal of animals not specified in headings 0201 to 0207, when fresh, chilled, or frozen. Therefore, 0208.90 is the designated place for such products when they do not fit the categories for rabbits, hares, primates, marine mammals, pinnipeds, reptiles, or camels and other camelids.
Crucially, this category is distinct from its siblings by capturing any edible meat or offal from animals not explicitly listed in the preceding subheadings. For instance, while 0208.10.00.00 is for rabbit and hare meat, and 0208.50.00.00 is for reptiles, 0208.90 would encompass products like game birds other than those specified, or the meat of animals like kangaroos or ostriches if not otherwise classified. The key differentiator is the absence of a more specific HTS classification for the particular animal source of the meat or offal within Chapter 2.
The subcategories within 0208.90 provide further refinement for common types of "other" meat and edible offal. This includes specific provisions for deer (0208.90.20.00), frog's legs (0208.90.25.00), and certain preparations of quail (0208.90.30.00). The residual classification within this group is 0208.90.91.00, designated for "Other," capturing all remaining meat and edible offal that qualifies for heading 0208 but is not specifically enumerated in any of its preceding subheadings, including 0208.90.20.00 through 0208.90.30.00.
