3004.50.50.05 - For veterinary use 🖩

This HTS category, 3004.50.50.05, specifically addresses medicaments for veterinary use that contain vitamins or other products of heading 2936. These are formulated pharmaceutical preparations intended for the treatment or prevention of diseases in animals. The key defining characteristics are their veterinary application and their composition, which must include vitamins or compounds otherwise classified under heading 2936 (organic chemicals). The goods are typically presented in measured doses or retail packaging suitable for administration to livestock, poultry, pets, or other animals.

Distinguishing this subcategory from its siblings, "Other," is crucial. While the broader category 3004.50.50 encompasses various medicaments with vitamins for therapeutic or prophylactic uses, this specific subdivision is exclusively for veterinary applications. Any medicament containing vitamins or heading 2936 products intended for human consumption would fall under a different, non-veterinary, classification. The purpose of use – whether for human or animal health – is the primary differentiating factor.

As this node represents a leaf category within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification into 3004.50.50.05 is final if the goods meet the criteria of being a medicament for veterinary use containing vitamins or products of heading 2936 and are presented in measured doses or retail packaging. Classification decisions should always be supported by detailed product information, including the intended use and ingredient list, to ensure accurate duty assessment and compliance with import/export regulations.
