Learn English – NSPF abbreviation

abbreviations

I am looking at some US statistics and I have found this abbreviation, with this explanation (pdf) in the subtext.

NSPF – Not specifically provided for.

The context is a list of US trading codes.

0304991012 GROUNDFISH COD NSPF MEAT FROZEN > 6.8KG

I could not find a better description on the internet, so I am asking you what meaning you give "not specifically provided for".

Best Answer

It means you may use the trading code, but only when there is no other trading code that more closely matches the commodity.

Other ways of expressing “not specifically provided for”:

  • not elsewhere specified or indicated
  • miscellaneous
  • uncategorized
  • catch-all
  • other
