Overview
This classification, HTS Code 1605.10.20.25, covers "Other" crabmeat prepared or preserved in airtight containers. Specifically, it pertains to snow crab species within the genus *Chionoecetes* that do not fall under more specific subcategories. This encompasses preparations of snow crab meat, such as cooked, frozen, or canned crabmeat, intended for consumption and packaged to ensure preservation.
This category distinguishes itself from its sibling, 1605.10.20.22, which is designated for *Chionoecetes opilio* (small). Therefore, 1605.10.20.25 is reserved for other commercially recognized species of snow crab, or specific presentations of *C. opilio* that are not classified as "small" by established trade definitions. The core criteria for inclusion here are the species of snow crab (*Chionoecetes bairdi, C. opilio, C. tanneri, and C. angulatus*) and their preparation in airtight containers.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under HTS Code 1605.10.20.25. The classification is finalized at this level based on the species of snow crab and the method of preservation. Importers and exporters should ensure accurate identification of the specific snow crab species and confirm that the product is indeed packaged in airtight containers to correctly apply this designation.
