1501.90.00.00 - Other

This HTS category, 1501.90.00.00, encompasses "Other" animal fats derived from pigs and poultry, which are not specifically classified under other subheadings within Chapter 15. It serves as a residual category for pig fat and poultry fat that does not fit the precise definitions of lard or other pig fat as outlined in the preceding subheadings.

Specifically, this category distinguishes itself from "Lard" (1501.10.00.00) by excluding rendered pig fat primarily used as a cooking fat or ingredient. It also differs from "Other pig fat" (1501.20.00) by encompassing poultry fat and any pig fat that doesn't meet the criteria for the more specific "Other pig fat" classification. This includes fats rendered or unrendered from pigs and poultry that are not designated for specific food applications or are derived from parts of the animal not typically associated with lard production.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 1501.90.00.00 relies on determining that the goods are indeed pig or poultry fat and that they do not meet the specific descriptions of the preceding subheadings 1501.10.00.00 and 1501.20.00. Practical examples could include rendered poultry fat for industrial uses, or pig fat that is not considered lard due to its source or processing.
