0507.90.00.90 - Other

This classification, HTS Code 0507.90.00.90, encompasses a broad range of animal-derived materials, excluding those specifically enumerated elsewhere within Chapter 5. It covers products such as ivory, tortoise-shell, whalebone, horns, antlers, hooves, nails, claws, and beaks that have undergone minimal processing, such as cleaning or basic preparation, but have not been shaped or cut into specific forms. This includes materials in their raw state or in powdered or waste forms.

The distinction between this residual category and its sibling, 0507.90.00.10, lies in the specific product. While 0507.90.00.10 is exclusively for "velvet antler," this subcategory 0507.90.00.90 serves as a catch-all for all other eligible products within the scope of heading 0507 that are not velvet antler. Therefore, any unworked or simply prepared horn, ivory, claw, etc., that does not fall under the specific velvet antler designation would be classified here.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 0507.90.00.90 relies on the absence of specific enumeration in other parts of heading 0507 and its subordinate headings, coupled with the material being derived from the listed animal parts and being in an unworked or simply prepared state. For practical classification, it's crucial to confirm that the imported product is indeed one of the specified animal parts and has not undergone further shaping or manufacturing processes.
