Overview

This HTS category, 0305.63.40.00, specifically covers anchovies, whether dried, salted, or in brine, that are packed in immediate containers weighing 6.8 kilograms or less each. This includes anchovies presented in various preparations such as whole, filleted, or pieces, provided they meet the weight limitation of the immediate container. The defining characteristic for this classification is the weight of the product and its immediate packaging.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 0305.63.20.00, which covers anchovies packed in airtight containers. While both subcategories fall under salted or brined anchovies in small immediate containers, the distinguishing factor here is the *type* of immediate container. 0305.63.40.00 captures those where the container is not necessarily airtight, focusing solely on the weight threshold of 6.8 kg or less for the immediate packaging.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 0305.63.40.00 is determined by the presence of anchovies, preserved by salting or brining, and presented in immediate containers that weigh 6.8 kg or less in total. This ensures a precise identification of these specific preserved seafood products for customs purposes.
