Overview
This HTS classification, 0307.79.01.55, denotes "Other" clams that do not fall under specifically enumerated subcategories within the broader classification of clams. This category is designed to capture a residual group of clam species not otherwise detailed at this level of the tariff schedule. It encompasses a variety of clam types, live or preserved, that do not fit the specific descriptions of sibling categories.
While sibling categories might delineate specific, commercially significant clam species like Geoduck (0307.79.01.30) or Stimson's clams (0307.79.01.51), this "Other" classification serves as a catch-all. Therefore, importers and exporters should carefully examine the precise species and characteristics of their clams to determine if they are more specifically classified elsewhere before resorting to this general heading. The key differentiator is the absence of a more precise HTS classification for the specific type of clam being imported or exported.
As this classification node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. All clams not specifically listed under more detailed subheadings within the 0307.79.01 (Clams) group will ultimately be classified here. It is crucial to rely on botanical or zoological identification and consult relevant customs rulings if there is any ambiguity in the classification of less common clam species.
