Overview
This HTS category, 3004.39.00.10, specifically covers medicaments intended for veterinary use. These products consist of mixed or unmixed substances for therapeutic or prophylactic purposes in animals, presented in measured doses, such as injections or oral suspensions, or in forms suitable for retail sale to veterinarians or animal owners. The "for veterinary use" designation is the primary distinguishing factor for this classification.
While this category falls under the broader heading of "Other, containing hormones or other products of heading 2937," its specific focus on animal health differentiates it from human pharmaceuticals classified under similar headings. This subclassification ensures that medicaments administered to animals are correctly identified for regulatory and tariff purposes.
As a leaf node in the HTS classification, 3004.39.00.10 does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the classification decision hinges entirely on the product's intended use (veterinary) and its composition (containing hormones or other products of heading 2937, but not being of a type specifically classified elsewhere within heading 3004). Examples would include veterinary hormone treatments for reproductive health in livestock or therapeutic hormone injections for various animal conditions.
