0303.29.01.50 - Other

This HTS category, "Other," within the broader classification of frozen fish excluding fillets and other fish meat, encompasses a variety of fish species that are not specifically enumerated in the preceding subheadings at this level. This includes any fish falling under the scope of heading 0303 (fish, frozen, excluding fillets and other fish meat of heading 0304) and the intermediate descriptions for Tilapias, catfish, carp, eels, Nile perch, and snakeheads, but which are not themselves Nile perch. For instance, if a particular species of carp or catfish that doesn't fit the exact nomenclature of the parent subheading is imported frozen, it would be classified here.

It is crucial to distinguish this "Other" category from its sibling, 0303.29.01.10, which specifically designates Nile perch. Therefore, any frozen fish classified under this "Other" subheading must not be Nile perch. The defining characteristic is that the fish is frozen, belongs to the general fish category of Chapter 3, and is not a fillet or other fish meat of heading 0304.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this point is definitive. Importers and customs brokers must carefully verify that the frozen fish in question does not precisely match the descriptions for Nile perch or any of the other species detailed in the parent subheadings. If it is a fish species not explicitly named, but still fits the general criteria of the parent category, it will be classified under this "Other" designation.
