9903.85.50 - Aluminum products of the United Kingdom, when such products are covered by an exclusion granted by the Secretary of Commerce under note 19(c) to this subchapter, provided that such goods shall be counted toward any quantitative limitation applicable to any such product until such limitation has filled

This HTS classification, 9903.85.50, specifically designates aluminum products originating from the United Kingdom that have received an exclusion granted by the Secretary of Commerce under note 19(c) of this subchapter. It is important to note that while these products are granted an exclusion, they are still counted towards any applicable quantitative limitations until those limits are reached. This classification is situated within Chapter 99, which pertains to temporary legislation, trade agreement modifications, and additional import restrictions enacted under Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act.

Unlike the broad commodity classifications found in earlier chapters of the HTS (such as those covering live animals, which represent distinct product categories based on species), this category addresses a very specific trade provision for a particular commodity from a specific country under exceptional circumstances. It is not defined by the inherent physical characteristics or primary use of the aluminum product itself, but rather by its origin, the administrative exclusion granted, and its treatment relative to quantitative restrictions.

As a leaf node, HTS code 9903.85.50 does not possess further subcategories. Its function is to precisely identify and manage the import of these conditionally admitted aluminum products from the United Kingdom. Any aluminum products not meeting the stringent criteria of origin and exclusion outlined in note 19(c) would be classified elsewhere within the HTS, subject to different duty rates and import regulations.
