Overview
HTS Code 0304.69.00.00 encompasses fish fillets and other fish meat, whether minced, fresh, chilled, or frozen, that do not fall under the specifically enumerated categories within subheading 0304.6. This broad category serves as a residual classification for fish meats that are not tilapias, catfish, Nile perch, carp, eels, or snakeheads. Therefore, it includes fillets and minced meat from a diverse range of fish species not explicitly listed in the preceding subheadings.
This category is distinguished from its siblings by the exclusion of specific, identified fish types. For instance, 0304.61.00.00 is dedicated to tilapias, while 0304.62.00 covers catfish. Similarly, 0304.63.00.00 is reserved for Nile perch. By definition, any fish fillets or other fish meat falling under 0304.6 but not fitting these specific species descriptions will be classified under the "Other" category of 0304.69.00.00.
As a leaf node, this category does not have further subdivisions. Classification into 0304.69.00.00 is determined by the species of fish from which the fillets or meat are derived, provided that species is not already accounted for in the more specific subheadings under 0304.6. Importers and exporters must carefully identify the precise species of fish to ensure correct classification and compliance with import/export regulations.
