Overview
This HTS category, "Other," within the broader classification of crustaceans, serves as a residual category for all crustaceans not specifically enumerated in preceding subheadings at this level. It encompasses a wide array of shelled marine and freshwater arthropods that fall under Chapter 3 of the HTS. This includes various types of crustaceans, prepared or preserved in ways not covered by more specific headings, such as dried, salted, in brine, or smoked, provided they are not specifically classified elsewhere.
Crucially, this "Other" category is distinguished from its siblings by the absence of specific enumeration. For instance, it does not cover rock lobster and sea crawfish (0306.91), lobsters (0306.92), crabs (0306.93), Norway lobsters (0306.94), or shrimps and prawns (0306.95). If a particular type of crustacean or a specific preparation method for a crustacean is explicitly listed in a sibling subheading, it will be classified there rather than under this general "Other" heading.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, accurate classification within 0306.99.01.00 relies on a thorough examination of the specific product against the definitions provided in the preceding subheadings. If a crustacean or its preparation does not precisely match the description of any other subheading within 0306.91 through 0306.95, it will likely be classified under this residual "Other" designation, provided it meets the general criteria for crustaceans outlined in the parent heading.
