Analysis
HTS 0103.91.00 covers weighing less than 50 kg each under heading 0103 (live swine). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 3 ten-digit suffixes, reported in number of items and kilograms.
There is no general-rate duty on this line, which puts it with roughly 73% of the 26 tariff lines in chapter 01 that are also free. Duty-free at the general rate does not rule out additional duties under Chapter 99, such as Section 301 or Section 232 measures, which depend on the country of origin.
The other lines in the same group are 0103.10.00 (purebred breeding animals, duty-free) and 0103.92.00 (weighing 50 kg or more each, duty-free).
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 112210 (Hog and Pig Farming), the industry a domestic producer of these goods reports under.
The ten-digit suffixes separate weighing less than 7 kg each, weighing 7 kg or more but less than 23… and weighing 23 kg or more but less than 50…. The duty is the same across them; the suffix matters for statistics, licensing and some quotas, and an entry needs all ten digits.
