2309.90.95.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS code, 2309.90.95.00, falls under "Other" preparations of a kind used in animal feeding. It encompasses a broad range of animal feed supplements and preparations that do not fit into more specific categories within heading 2309. This includes, but is not limited to, products formulated to enhance nutrient intake, promote growth, improve health, or act as a palatability enhancer for various animal species. The classification is determined by the preparation's primary function as an additive to animal feed, provided it doesn't meet the criteria for more specialized subheadings.

This category serves as a residual classification for animal feed preparations. It is distinct from sibling categories such as 2309.90.70.00, which specifically covers preparations with a basis of vitamin B12 for supplementing animal feed. Therefore, any preparation that is primarily a vitamin B12 supplement would be classified under 2309.90.70.00 and not under this "Other" category. The key differentiator lies in the presence of a specific active ingredient or formulation that warrants separate classification.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories for this specific code. Therefore, the focus for classification within 2309.90.95.00 is on ensuring that the product is indeed a preparation used in animal feeding and does not meet the specific criteria of any other HTS code within heading 2309. Common examples might include certain mineral supplements, non-specific growth promoters, or specialized feed additives not otherwise enumerated, provided they are imported or exported in a form suitable for incorporation into animal feed.
