0304.59.00.65 - Atlantic ocean perch

This HTS category, 0304.59.00.65, specifically classifies Atlantic Ocean Perch (also known as Redfish) when presented as fish meat. This includes fillets, steaks, or minced meat that is fresh or chilled. The "other" designation at this level indicates that it does not fall under the more specific categories of freshwater fish or flat fish, which are classified separately.

The key distinction for this classification lies in the species and origin. Unlike other "other" categories at this level that might capture a broader range of miscellaneous fresh or chilled fish meat, this code is dedicated solely to Atlantic Ocean Perch, ensuring precise identification for customs purposes. It is important to note that frozen Atlantic Ocean Perch would be classified under a different HTS heading.

As a leaf node, 0304.59.00.65 has no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this specific code depends entirely on the accurate identification of the product as Atlantic Ocean Perch and its presentation in a fresh or chilled state, excluding other species or preparation methods like freezing.
