Overview

This HTS category, 0302.89.50.67, specifically covers monkfish (Lophius spp.) that are presented fresh or chilled. As per Chapter 3 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, this classification pertains to whole fish or fish in their natural state, excluding processed forms like fillets or other fish meat which fall under heading 0304. The inclusion of "spp." indicates that the classification applies to all species within the Lophius genus.

Within the broader group of "Other fish," this subcategory distinguishes monkfish from a variety of other fish types listed at the same level. For instance, while siblings might include smelts, cusk, shad, sturgeon, and sable fish, monkfish is identified by its unique biological characteristics and culinary uses. It is important to note that this is a leaf node, meaning there are no further subdivisions within this specific HTS code. Classification into this category relies on the definitive identification of the fish as belonging to the Lophius genus, presented in fresh or chilled condition.
