0307.43.00 - Frozen

This HTS category, 0307.43.00, specifically covers cuttle fish and squid that have been preserved through freezing. This includes products that have undergone a freezing process to maintain freshness and extend shelf life. The scope is limited to frozen presentation, distinguishing it from other methods of preservation.

To further clarify, this category is distinct from its sibling, 0307.42.00, which encompasses cuttle fish and squid that are live, fresh, or chilled. Therefore, any cuttle fish or squid product that has not been frozen, but rather is presented in its raw, unfrozen state or has been kept at refrigeration temperatures, would fall under the chilled category. Similarly, it is differentiated from the "Other" category at this level, which would typically encompass forms of cuttle fish and squid not otherwise specified.

Within this category, there is a further subdivision, 0307.43.00.60, designated for "Other" frozen cuttle fish and squid. This subcategory would be used for specific types or preparations of frozen cuttle fish and squid that do not warrant a more granular classification, serving as a catch-all for remaining frozen presentations within this broader group.
