Description

Overview

HTS Code 0307 encompasses a diverse range of molluscs, encompassing both shelled and unshelled varieties. This category includes live, fresh, chilled, frozen, dried, salted, or brined molluscs. It also extends to molluscs that have undergone smoking, regardless of whether they were cooked before or during the smoking process. The key defining characteristic for inclusion in this chapter is the biological classification as a mollusc.

Unlike sibling categories in Chapter 3, which focus on fish (e.g., 0301-0306) or other aquatic invertebrates like crustaceans and aquatic invertebrates not elsewhere specified (e.g., 0306-0308), HTS 0307 specifically targets molluscan species. This ensures a clear distinction and proper tariff treatment for these distinct groups of marine and freshwater life.

Within HTS 0307, further subcategories exist to refine classification based on specific types of molluscs. These include detailed classifications for oysters, scallops and other Pectinidae family members, mussels, cuttlefish and squid, octopus, snails (other than sea snails), clams, cockles, ark shells, abalone, and stromboid conchs. An "Other" category is also present for molluscs not specifically enumerated in these more detailed subheadings, allowing for comprehensive coverage of all molluscan products.
