Overview

This HTS classification, 0303.25.01.00, specifically designates frozen carp, encompassing a broad range of species within the *Cyprinus*, *Carassius*, *Ctenopharyngodon*, *Hypophthalmichthys*, *Cirrhinus*, *Mylopharyngodon*, *Catla*, *Labeo*, *Osteochilus*, *Leptobarbus*, and *Megalobrama* genera. The classification applies to whole fish or pieces thereof, frozen for preservation, and excludes fillets or other fish meat classified under heading 0304.

It is crucial to differentiate this category from its siblings. Subheading 0303.23.00.00 covers frozen tilapias, while 0303.24.00 is dedicated to catfish. Similarly, 0303.26.00.00 pertains to frozen eels, and any other fish not specifically listed would fall under the "Other" category (0303.29.01). This subheading is solely for carp species as detailed in its description.

As a leaf node, 0303.25.01.00 does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, classification within this code is determined by the presence of frozen carp, regardless of its preparation beyond being frozen whole or in pieces. The key differentiator is the species identification aligning with the carp genera provided.
