0303.63.00.90 - Other

This HTS subheading, 0303.63.00.90, covers frozen fish specifically from the families Bregmacerotidae, Euclichthyidae, Gadidae, Macrouridae, Melanonidae, Merlucciidae, Moridae, and Muraenolepididae, excluding edible fish offal. Within the broader classification for frozen fish of these families, this "Other" subheading is designated for cod species that are not specifically classified under the "Atlantic" designation.

The primary distinction for this subheading lies in its exclusion of "Atlantic" cod. While both "Atlantic" cod and the cod covered under this "Other" subheading belong to the Gadidae family and meet the general criteria of frozen fish from the specified families, their territorial origin dictates the precise classification. This implies that the "Atlantic" classification (0303.63.00.10) is reserved for cod originating from the Atlantic Ocean, whereas this subheading encompasses cod from other geographical locations.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to detail. The classification for frozen cod from families Bregmacerotidae, Euclichthyidae, Gadidae, Macrouridae, Melanonidae, Merlucciidae, Moridae, and Muraenolepididae, excluding those specifically designated as "Atlantic" cod or edible fish offal, concludes at this point. Therefore, importers and exporters should ensure they are not classifying "Atlantic" cod under this general "Other" designation.
