So many of those are extremely specific but some are generic. They listed 'all bovine meat' but decided to go ahead and list every species of fish they could think of instead of 'all fish'. Also they separately listed gold bullion, gold in rectangular form and gold in near rectangular form, but the suckers didn't say anything about trapezoidal prisms. Just say they are decorative ingots and you're good to go.

yeah HTS codes can be really specific and generic - brokers can play with that to 'beat' the system. I'm pretty sure if they want to reduce 25% tariff on a low margin product they can port-shop through Malaysia/Vietnam and pretend it had a 'significant' transformation that allows country of origin labeling to change. \*bam\* tariff is gone.

 FYI - don't try this there are ways people in CBP can detect this ;).
