Overview

This classification, HTS 0308.19.01.00, encompasses "Other" sea cucumbers. It serves as a residual category for sea cucumbers that do not fall under the specifically enumerated forms of live, fresh, chilled, or frozen. This means it includes sea cucumbers prepared in ways not explicitly detailed in preceding subheadings, such as those that are dried, salted, in brine, or smoked.

The key differentiator for this category is the preservation or preparation method applied to the sea cucumber. While HTS 0308.11.00.00 covers sea cucumbers in their immediate state (live, fresh, or chilled), and HTS 0308.12.00.00 pertains to the frozen form, this subheading addresses sea cucumbers that have undergone further processing or preservation beyond these initial states. The inclusion of "salted or in brine" and "smoked" clearly distinguishes these preparations from their fresh or frozen counterparts.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 0308.19.01.00 hinges on identifying sea cucumbers that are not live, fresh, chilled, or frozen. This includes, but is not limited to, dried sea cucumbers, sea cucumbers preserved in salt or brine solutions, and sea cucumbers that have been subjected to smoking processes, regardless of whether they were cooked prior to or during smoking.
