Overview
This category encompasses squid that are not classified under the more specific "Loligo" designation. It serves as a residual classification for various species of squid, excluding those falling into designated genera, typically distinguished by their biological characteristics and origin. This ensures that all forms of squid, whether fresh, frozen, dried, or otherwise preserved, are properly accounted for within the HTS system when they do not meet the criteria for more granular subheadings.
The distinction between this "Other" squid category and its sibling, "Loligo," lies in the taxonomic classification of the squid species. While "Loligo" specifically refers to squid within that genus, this category captures a broader range of squid species not belonging to it. Importers and exporters must therefore be able to identify or verify the species of squid to ensure correct classification, referencing zoological or ichthyological resources if necessary.
Given that this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification here relies on the general definition of "squid" and its exclusion from the "Loligo" subheading. Practical classification will involve confirming the product is indeed squid and not falling under the specific "Loligo" criteria, thereby justifying its placement under this "Other" heading.
