0511.10.00 - Bovine semen

Sub-classifications

Commodity Code
Description

Overview

This category specifically covers bovine semen intended for artificial insemination. It falls under Chapter 5 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, which deals with animal products not elsewhere specified or included, and dead animals unfit for human consumption. The key characteristic here is the biological origin and specific use of the product.

While the parent category encompasses a broader range of animal products and dead animals, HTS 0511.10.00 is precise in its scope. Its sibling category, "Other," is a residual classification for any products within Chapter 5 that do not fit into more specific headings, underscoring that bovine semen has its own distinct and recognized classification.

Within this classification, subdivisions exist to further refine the type of bovine semen. HTS 0511.10.00.10 is designated for semen classified as "Dairy," likely distinguishing between semen from dairy breeds versus other types of cattle. The "Other" subcategory (0511.10.00.90) serves as a catch-all for any bovine semen that does not meet the specific criteria for the dairy designation, ensuring comprehensive coverage.
