The heading splits first by preservation state (fresh or chilled under 0203.11 to 0203.19, frozen under 0203.21 to 0203.29), then by cut type, with a separate break for processed versus other pork. Bone-in hams and shoulders and processed pork carry a specific duty, while most other lines are free.
