0307.29.01.00 - Other

This HTS category, 0307.29.01.00, encompasses scallops and other molluscs belonging to the family Pectinidae that do not fall under the 'live, fresh or chilled' or 'frozen' classifications. This primarily includes molluscs of this family that have undergone preservation methods beyond simply chilling or freezing, such as drying, salting, or being preserved in brine. It also covers any smoked scallops or other Pectinidae molluscs, regardless of whether they were cooked before or during the smoking process.

Unlike its sibling categories, 0307.21.00.00 (Live, fresh or chilled) and 0307.22.00.00 (Frozen), this classification is reserved for products that have been treated or processed in ways that alter their state or shelf-life beyond these initial stages. For instance, dried scallops or scallops packed in brine would be classified here, whereas fresh or frozen scallops would be directed to the respective sibling codes.

As a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories for 0307.29.01.00. Therefore, the practical application of this code relies on accurately identifying scallops and other Pectinidae molluscs that have been preserved through methods like drying, salting, brining, or smoking, and are not simply fresh, chilled, or frozen. This ensures accurate customs declarations for a wide range of preserved seafood products.
