Overview
This HTS classification, 9903.94.03, designates certain passenger vehicles and light trucks that are subject to specific import restrictions. These restrictions are effective for entries made on or after April 3, 2025, and their applicability is determined by the provisions outlined in subdivision (d) of U.S. note 33 to this subchapter. This category falls under Chapter 99, which is reserved for temporary legislation and modifications related to trade agreements and import restrictions.
Unlike the primary goods classifications found in Chapters 01 through 98, which categorize merchandise based on inherent physical characteristics and intended use, this HTS code represents a temporary measure. It does not describe a type of good in itself but rather a modification to the import status of specific vehicles based on external legislative or policy decisions. The "sibling" categories at this level within Chapter 99 would also represent similar temporary provisions, modifications, or additional restrictions, differing in the specific goods or circumstances they address, rather than in the fundamental nature of the goods themselves.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 9903.94.03. The classification is specific to the described vehicles and the effective date. Any importer dealing with passenger vehicles and light trucks that may fall under this provision must consult U.S. note 33(d) to determine definitive eligibility and any associated duties or requirements.
