This HTS code, 9903.02.60, pertains to specific temporary import restrictions and modifications related to goods originating from Taiwan. It is a provision under Chapter 99, which houses temporary legislation and actions taken pursuant to trade agreements and Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act. The core of this classification lies in its application to articles from Taiwan, subject to detailed conditions and exceptions outlined in the description, including specific timeframes for loading and entry.

While other HTS codes in Chapter 99 might address temporary measures for different product groups or originating countries, 9903.02.60 is narrowly defined for Taiwanese goods. Its distinction from sibling categories, which would likely be other temporary import restrictions or specific commodity-based measures, is its exclusive focus on Taiwan and the precise temporal and product exclusions mentioned within its descriptive text.

As a leaf node within the HTS database, 9903.02.60 does not have further subcategories. Classification under this code hinges on meeting all the stipulated criteria regarding the origin of the goods (Taiwan), the timing of their transit and entry, and the exclusion of products covered by other, more specific temporary provisions such as those referenced in headings 9903.01.30-9903.01.33 and 9903.01.34 and 9903.02.01. Importers must carefully review these conditions to ensure accurate classification and compliance.
