9903.01.32 - Articles the product of any country, classified in the subheadings enumerated in subdivision (v)(iii) of U.S. note 2 to this subchapter

HTS code 9903.01.32 falls under Section XXII, which deals with Special Classification Provisions, Temporary Legislation, and Additional Import Restrictions. Specifically, this code is located within Chapter 99, dedicated to temporary measures and restrictions. This particular subheading pertains to articles originating from any country that are specifically enumerated under subdivision (v)(iii) of U.S. note 2 to this subchapter. It is crucial to consult the referenced U.S. note to identify the precise list of goods subject to this classification.

Unlike the preceding sibling categories which detail specific live animal categories such as horses, cattle, swine, sheep, goats, and poultry, HTS code 9903.01.32 does not classify merchandise based on inherent product characteristics like species or material. Instead, its scope is defined by external legislative or proclamation actions, referencing a specific U.S. note for its coverage. Therefore, an article classified here is identified not by what it *is* physically, but by a specific legal designation that subjects it to the provisions outlined in the referenced U.S. note.

As this subheading is a leaf node, it does not contain further subcategories. Consequently, classification under 9903.01.32 is definitive once an article is identified as meeting the criteria specified in subdivision (v)(iii) of U.S. note 2 to this subchapter. This often indicates goods subject to temporary import restrictions, quotas, or special duties imposed under specific trade agreements or legislative actions, requiring diligent verification against the precise wording of the governing U.S. note.
