Overview
This HTS category, 0302.89.50.10, specifically covers pickerel, a type of freshwater fish, when imported or exported in a fresh or chilled state. It falls under the broader classification of "Other fish, excluding edible fish offal" within Chapter 3, meaning it pertains to whole fish or pieces of fish that are not considered offal. The primary classification criteria are the species of fish and its condition (fresh or chilled).
Pickerel is distinguished from its sibling categories by its distinct species identification. For instance, while 0302.89.50.07 covers pike and 0302.89.50.28 covers bass, this subheading is exclusively for pickerel. The other sibling categories, such as perch and whitefish, are also identified by their specific species, ensuring accurate separation and tariff application. This level of specificity is crucial for correct customs procedures.
As this subheading is a leaf node, it does not have further subcategories. This signifies that once a fish is identified as pickerel and confirmed to be fresh or chilled, it is directly classified under this code. There are no further subdivisions based on size, cut, or specific preparation within this particular HTS entry for pickerel.
