Overview

This HTS classification, 9903.81.83, specifically addresses iron or steel products that fall under subdivision (b) of note 16 to this subchapter. Crucially, for goods to be classified here, they must be products originating from Ukraine and must *not* be accompanied by a valid certificate of origin. This designation falls within the broader scope of Chapter 99, which governs temporary legislation and modifications related to trade agreements and import restrictions.

This category is distinct from other HTS classifications because of its specific conditions tied to both country of origin and documentation. Unlike general classifications for iron or steel products found in Chapters 72 and 73, this code is reserved for a particular trade policy measure impacting Ukrainian exports. It is not a classification based on the inherent physical characteristics or intended use of the iron or steel itself, but rather on its origin and the compliance with specific import requirements.

As a leaf node in the HTS database, 9903.81.83 does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the classification of any given iron or steel product hinges entirely on meeting the stated criteria: being a product of Ukraine and lacking a certificate of origin, while simultaneously fitting the description in subdivision (b) of note 16. This precise combination of origin and documentation is the sole determinant for inclusion under this HTS code.
