Overview
This HTS classification covers fresh or chilled fillets of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) that are not farmed. Atlantic salmon is a species known for its distinct characteristics and is sourced from wild populations. Fillets, in this context, refer to the sides of the fish cut lengthwise, excluding the head, tail, and bones, and can be presented whole, in pieces, or minced.
This category is specifically distinguished from its sibling, 0304.41.00.10, which pertains to farmed Atlantic salmon. The key differentiator here is the origin of the fish: this classification is for wild-caught Atlantic salmon, whereas the sibling category is for those raised in aquaculture. This distinction is crucial for import and export purposes, as different regulations and duties may apply based on the origin of the fish.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under this specific code. Classification is definitive at this level, focusing solely on the type of fish (Atlantic Salmon), its form (fillets or other meat, not minced), its condition (fresh or chilled), and its origin (not farmed). Importers and exporters should ensure their goods meet these precise criteria to ensure correct declaration and compliance with customs regulations.
