9903.01.14 - Articles that are entered free of duty under the terms of general note 11 to the HTSUS, including any treatment set forth in subchapter XXIII of chapter 98 and subchapter XXII of chapter 99 of the HTS, as related to the USMCA.

This HTS classification, 9903.01.14, serves as a specific provision for articles eligible for duty-free entry under General Note 11 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). This provision encompasses goods that benefit from special treatment outlined within Subchapter XXIII of Chapter 98 and Subchapter XXII of Chapter 99 of the HTSUS. Importantly, these treatments are directly related to the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), meaning the goods must meet specific origin and trade requirements established by that agreement to qualify for duty-free entry under this code.

Unlike the numerous sibling categories at the root of the HTS database, which detail the classification of various live animals, agricultural products, or manufactured goods, this category (9903.01.14) does not describe the inherent physical characteristics or primary function of goods. Instead, its purpose is to provide a framework for duty relief based on international trade agreements. Therefore, the distinction from its siblings lies in its focus on the *process* of entry and preferential duty treatment rather than the *nature* of the goods themselves.

As a leaf node, HTS code 9903.01.14 has no further subcategories. This means that once an article is determined to meet the criteria for duty-free entry under General Note 11 and related USMCA provisions, it falls directly under this specific code. Classification under this provision relies entirely on fulfilling the requirements set forth in the General Notes and the referenced Subchapters, rather than breaking down the goods into finer distinctions. Importers must carefully document their compliance with USMCA rules of origin and any other stipulated requirements to properly utilize this classification.
