HTS CHAPTER

Chapter 05: Products of Animal Origin

Chapter 05 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) covers a range of products of animal origin that are not classified elsewhere. This chapter includes a variety of categories such as animal by-products, feathers, and various animal-based raw materials used in industries like cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food production. Common examples of products under this chapter include animal hair, gelatin, and certain types of animal fats. Industries that frequently import these goods include food manufacturing, personal care, and health sectors, which utilize these materials for their products. Importers should be aware of specific regulatory considerations, such as compliance with the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) regulations, as well as potential restrictions related to food safety and sanitary standards. Ensuring proper documentation and adherence to import regulations is crucial for smooth customs clearance and to avoid potential penalties. Understanding the nuances of Chapter 05 is essential for US importers looking to navigate the complexities of international trade involving animal origin products.
