9903.01.46 - Except for goods loaded onto a vessel at the port of loading and in transit on the final mode of transit before 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on April 9, 2025, except for products described in headings 9903.01.28-9903.01.33, and except as provided for in heading 9903.01.34, articles the product of Norway or Venezuela, as provided for in subdivision (v) of U.S. note 2 to this subchapter [Compiler's note: provision terminated. See 90 Fed. Reg. 37963.]

HTS code 9903.01.46 falls under Chapter 99, which designates temporary legislation and modifications to import restrictions. This specific code addresses articles originating from Norway or Venezuela that are subject to particular import limitations. The core of this classification concerns products from these two nations, with the understanding that these provisions are largely superseded by subsequent legislation as indicated by compiler's notes. Crucially, the exceptions outlined within this heading refer to goods already in transit under specific conditions and exclude certain other categories, such as those detailed in 9903.01.28 through 9903.01.33, and exceptions provided in 9903.01.34.

Given that this is a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories. The classification is precise and focuses on the origin of the goods (Norway or Venezuela) and the specific, albeit largely terminated, temporary restrictions that were applied. To correctly classify goods under this heading, an importer would need to ascertain the country of origin and confirm that the article is not covered by any of the stated exceptions or the broader exclusions. The presence of a compiler's note indicating termination suggests that while this code exists in the tariff schedule, its practical application for new imports is extremely limited or nonexistent due to the superseded nature of the underlying trade legislation.
