Analysis
HTS 0507.90.00 covers ivory, tortoise-shell, whalebone and whalebone hair, horns, antlers, hooves, nails, claws and beaks, unworked or simply prepared but not cut to shape; powder… under heading 0507 (ivory, tortoise-shell, whalebone and whalebone hair, horns, antlers, hooves, nails, claws…). US Customs collects import statistics for it under 2 ten-digit suffixes, reported in kilograms.
For statistics it divides in two: 0507.90.00.10 for velvet antler and 0507.90.00.90 for other. Both pay the same duty; the suffix records which kind was imported.
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 75% of the 20 tariff lines in chapter 05, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Chapter 99 measures such as Section 301 or 232 can still apply on top, depending on where the goods come from.
The other line in the same group is 0507.10.00 (ivory; ivory powder and waste, duty-free).
The general rate of Free has not changed in any edition of the schedule since Jan 2023.
