Overview
This HTS category, 0307.12.00.60, specifically covers oysters that have been farmed. This designation signifies that the oysters are cultivated under controlled aquaculture conditions, differentiating them from wild-caught varieties. The classification is relevant for imported or exported oysters that are presented in a frozen state.
Within the broader classification of frozen oysters, this subcategory is distinct from the "Other" category (0307.12.00.80). While "Other" would encompass frozen oysters not specifically designated as farmed, this category isolates farmed oysters for potential specific trade regulations, tariffs, or statistical tracking purposes. The key distinguishing factor for classification under 0307.12.00.60 is the origin of the oysters through aquaculture.
As this classification node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within it. Therefore, all frozen farmed oysters that meet the criteria of Chapter 3's molluscs and Chapter 0307's oysters will fall under this specific code. Classification relies primarily on verifying the farmed origin and the frozen presentation of the oysters.
