Overview

This HTS classification pertains to specific types of trousers, breeches, or shorts that meet stringent origin criteria from Nicaragua. The classification is governed by the terms of General Note 29 to the tariff schedule, further detailing specific requirements outlined in subdivision (d) of U.S. Note 15 to this particular subchapter. These provisions are designed to track and potentially regulate the import of these specific apparel items based on their country of origin and adherence to trade agreement stipulations.

Unlike the broad categories of goods found under Chapters 01-98 of the HTS, which cover a vast array of products from live animals to machinery, HTS code 9915.61.05 falls within Chapter 99. This chapter is dedicated to temporary legislation, temporary modifications, and additional import restrictions. Therefore, this classification is distinct from the standard product classifications because it deals with special trade rules and restrictions rather than the inherent characteristics of a product for general tariff purposes. Its siblings would also be within Chapter 99, representing other temporary or restricted import categories, rather than unrelated product groups like live animals or manufactured goods.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories. This means that any trousers, breeches, or shorts meeting the specific origin and descriptive criteria outlined in General Note 29 and U.S. Note 15(d) for Nicaragua will fall directly under this code. The focus for classification purposes here is solely on satisfying these precise origin and descriptive requirements to ensure compliance with the specific trade provisions enacted for these Nicaraguan apparel items.
