Classification notes
Chapter 23 covers significant trade volumes including pet food. Pet food destined for retail sale must comply with destination veterinary + labelling rules; personal-quantity pet-food carriage with the pet usually clears as personal effects.
Frequent misclassification
Pet food 2309.10 (dog/cat) vs 2309.90 (other animal feed); commercial-grade animal feed has different duty than retail pet food.
