Overview
This HTS category, 9903.01.27, designates specific articles that are the product of Mexico. Its inclusion within Section XXII, which covers Special Classification Provisions and Temporary Legislation, indicates that these goods are subject to special rules or restrictions. The "U.S. note 2 to this subchapter" referenced in the description is critical for understanding the precise scope and any accompanying conditions that may apply to these Mexican-origin articles.
Unlike the preceding HTS chapters which classify goods based on their inherent nature (e.g., live animals in Chapter 01), Chapter 99 serves as a repository for temporary measures, trade agreement provisions, and specific import restrictions. Therefore, 9903.01.27 does not describe a type of product by its material or function, but rather by its origin and its qualification under a particular trade policy or statutory provision. The key distinguishing factor here is the combination of "product of Mexico" and the specific reference to U.S. note 2.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 9903.01.27. Classification under this code hinges entirely on the determination that an article is manufactured in Mexico and meets the specific criteria outlined in the referenced U.S. note. Importers must carefully consult U.S. note 2 for this subchapter to confirm eligibility and any associated documentation or requirements before classifying goods under this provision.
