AppliedRegulationsAPHIS

USDA APHIS (Core) applied-regulations result for an item (ACE agency APH; core programs AAC/ABS/APQ/AVS). Item info appears once; the remaining fields are the inferred PGA message-set records — PG01 identity (processingCode/intendedUse), PG02 product code, PG05 taxon, PG06 source, PG10 characteristics, PG14 required LPCO. Each inferred value carries a 0-1 `confidenceScore` by grounding tier so the (deferred) compliance prefiller can render low-confidence values as "prefilled — confirm".

Fields

•

ID!

Required

Applied regulations ID.

agency

•

Agency!

Required

The regulatory agency this result is for.

auditTrail

•

String

AI-generated audit trail explaining the APHIS determination (markdown format).

category

•

AphisCategory

The APHIS category (type/code/name) for the line — deterministic from the HTS mapping.

commodityQualifiers

•

[AphisCommodityQualifier!]

PG10 commodity qualifiers — the commodity's distinctive attributes (physical state, gender, breed, ...). A mandatory qualifier that couldn't be resolved is surfaced with a null value (confidenceScore 0) for the prefiller to ask.

intendedUse

•

AphisIntendedUse

PG01 intended use (base.sub code) — client-declared or AI-inferred. Mandatory; absent / 0-confidence means ask.

itemCategories

•

[String!]

The category hierarchy associated with the item.

itemDescription

•

String

Human readable item description.

itemHtsCode

•

String!

Required

HTS code for this item (validated/classified).

itemId

•

String

External id for consumer mapping.

itemMaterial

•

String

The material composition of the item.

itemName

•

String

Human readable item name.

itemType

•

AphisItemType

Whether this entry is the whole imported article or a component of a larger article. Echoed from input; defaults to PRODUCT.

processingCode

•

GovernmentAgencyProcessingCode

PG01 program + processing code (programCode = AAC/ABS/APQ/AVS; code = A01-A05 routing).

productCode

•

AphisProductCode

PG02 product code — TSN (resolved taxon) or AVB (vet biologics). Optional; absent when neither applies.

prohibited

•

Boolean

Whether ACIR lists this commodity/origin as prohibited — always definitive (false unless an ACIR record prohibits). When true, no required documents are asserted (you can't file a prohibited commodity) — verify admissibility before filing.

requiredDocuments

•

[AphisDocument!]

PG14 supporting documents (the ACE "LPCO" — license/permit/certificate/other) required for admissibility, when any apply.

requiredTreatments

•

[AphisTreatment!]

ACIR-required treatments (e.g. cold treatment, fumigation) the commodity/origin must undergo to be admissible, when any apply. From the same ACIR record as requiredDocuments/prohibited.

source

•

AphisSource

PG06 source — source type (267 country of species origin, by default) + the paired country.

taxon

•

AphisTaxon

PG05 taxon (genus/species), client-supplied or inferred + validated against the APHIS name list.

unitsOfMeasure

•

[AphisUnitOfMeasureRequirement!]

The reporting units of measure APHIS requires for this commodity (e.g. KG weight, AMU animal units). Deterministic from the category; only always-required units are emitted.
