Overview
This HTS code specifically covers Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) that has been prepared as fillets or other fish meat, whether minced or not, and is presented in a frozen state. This classification is a subset of the broader category for frozen fish fillets.
This category is distinguished from its sibling category, 0304.81.50.90, which is designated for "Other" frozen fillets of Pacific salmon, Danube salmon, or Atlantic salmon. Therefore, while both deal with frozen fillets of certain salmon species, this specific code is exclusively for Atlantic salmon, whereas the sibling code would encompass other specified Pacific salmon species and Danube salmon, or other forms of Atlantic salmon not meeting the specific criteria here if any exist.
As this HTS code represents a leaf node in the tariff schedule, there are no further subcategories. This means that the classification is final at this level, and goods meeting the description of frozen Atlantic salmon fillets or minced meat will be classified under this precise code. The key differentiating factors for classification at this point are the species (Atlantic salmon) and its presentation (frozen fillets or minced meat).
