Analysis

Heading 0511 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers animal products not elsewhere specified or included; dead animals of chapter 1 or 3, unfit for human consumption. It divides into 3 six-digit subheadings and 7 eight-digit tariff lines, with 14 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.

5 of its 7 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (71%) and 2 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 3%. The median line pays duty-free.

The largest subheadings are 0511.99 (other, 5 lines), 0511.10 (unnamed, 1 line) and 0511.91 (unnamed, 1 line).

Its median rate of duty-free sits at the 38th percentile of the headings in chapter 05.

By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Rendering and Meat Byproduct Processing (311613), Beef Cattle Ranching and Farming, including Feedlots (11211) and Animal (except Poultry) Slaughtering (311611). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
