Overview
This HTS classification specifically pertains to fresh or chilled fillets of fish belonging to the families Bregmacerotidae, Euclichthyidae, Gadidae, Macrouridae, Melanonidae, Merlucciidae, Moridae, and Muraenolepididae. The "Pollock" designation under 0304.44.00.25 denotes a particular species within these families that meets the criteria for this subcategory, distinguishing it from other types of fish fillets that may fall under broader or sibling classifications.
Unlike sibling categories such as Cod (0304.44.00.10), Haddock (0304.44.00.20), or Hake (0304.44.00.30), this classification is precisely for Pollock fillets. The distinction is crucial for accurate duty assessment and trade statistics. While all these fish are within the scope of "Fish of the families Bregmacerotidae, Euclichthyidae, Gadidae, Macrouridae, Melanonidae, Merlucciidae, Moridae and Muraenolepididae," the specific species identification narrows the tariff application.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 0304.44.00.25 relies solely on confirming that the product is indeed a fresh or chilled fillet of Pollock from one of the specified fish families. If a product does not precisely match the description of Pollock fillets, it would be classified under the residual "Other" category (0304.44.00.90) within this group, or potentially in a different parent or sibling category depending on its species and condition.
