0210.91.00.00 - Of primates

This HTS classification, 0210.91.00.00, specifically covers meat and edible meat offal derived from primates, which has been preserved through salting, brining, drying, or smoking. This category is intended for such products intended for human consumption, adhering to the broader scope of Chapter 2 which deals with meat and edible meat offal.

Distinct from its sibling categories, 0210.91.00.00 excludes products from marine mammals such as whales, dolphins, manatees, dugongs, seals, sea lions, and walruses (0210.92.01.00), as well as meat and offal from reptiles like snakes and turtles (0210.93.00.00). The "Other" category at 0210.99.00.00 would encompass any remaining primate-derived edible meat and offal products that do not fall under more specific headings or if primates are not explicitly listed elsewhere within Chapter 2.

As a leaf node, this category does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, classification within 0210.91.00.00 hinges on the definitive identification of the meat or offal as originating from a primate species and its preparation method (salted, in brine, dried, or smoked) for edible purposes. This ensures precise tariff application for these specific types of preserved primate meat products.
