Overview

This HTS classification covers live Bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis). Bighead carp are freshwater fish commonly raised for aquaculture and are distinguished by their large heads. This specific code is designated for the live specimens of this particular species, aligning with the broader category of "Other live fish" within Chapter 3.

Within the "Other live fish" category, this HTS code is differentiated from its siblings. Specifically, it is separate from 0301.99.03.10, which covers Tench (Tinca tinca) and Sheatfish (Silurus glanis), and also distinct from 0301.99.03.90, which serves as a residual category for any other live fish not otherwise specified. Therefore, 0301.99.03.15 exclusively applies to Bighead carp.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification under this code is definitive for live Bighead carp, based on species identification and the established tariff definitions for live fish within the HTS.
