0302.85.50.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS classification, 0302.85.50.00, covers "Other" seabream (Sparidae) that are fresh or chilled, excluding fish fillets and other fish meat classified under heading 0304. It specifically encompasses seabream that do not fit the more detailed descriptions found in other subheadings within 0302.85. The "Other" designation indicates that these are seabream that have not undergone specific processing or packaging methods outlined in other subcategories at this level.

This category is distinct from its sibling, 0302.85.11.00, which is specifically for scaled seabream presented in immediate containers weighing 6.8 kg or less. Therefore, 0302.85.50.00 would apply to fresh or chilled seabream that is not scaled or is not presented in the specified container weight, assuming no other processing has occurred that would place it in a different classification. The key differentiator lies in the presence or absence of scaling and the specific packaging limitations of the sibling category.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. This means that any fresh or chilled seabream that meets the general criteria of heading 0302 (fish, fresh or chilled) and subheading 0302.85 (seabream) but is not specifically described by 0302.85.11.00 will be classified here. For practical purposes, this would include whole, ungutted seabream, or seabream that has been gutted but not scaled, or seabream presented in larger quantities or different packaging than specified in the sibling category.
