0303.34.00.00 - Turbots (Psetta maxima)

This HTS category specifically covers frozen turbots, identified by the scientific name *Psetta maxima*. These are whole, unprocessed fish that have been preserved through freezing. As members of the flatfish family, they are characterized by their flattened bodies and symmetrical eyes on one side. This classification applies solely to this particular species of turbot when imported or exported in a frozen state, excluding any further processed forms.

The distinction between this category and its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. While sibling categories cover other specific types of flatfish such as halibut, Greenland turbot, plaice, and sole, this heading is dedicated exclusively to *Psetta maxima*. It also differentiates itself from broader flatfish categories by its specific species identification, ensuring that only the designated turbot is classified here.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories for this specific product. Therefore, the classification for frozen *Psetta maxima* is definitive at this level. This means that any frozen turbot fitting the description of *Psetta maxima* will be classified under 0303.34.00.00, without needing to consider further subdivisions.
