Overview
This HTS subcategory, 1605.10.40.02, specifically classifies frozen king crab. King crab is characterized by its large size, distinctive spiny carapace, and long, powerful legs. For classification purposes, it is important to distinguish king crab from other crab species based on its unique biological and physical attributes.
The primary distinction from its sibling categories lies in the species of crab. Unlike snow crab (Chionoecetes bairdi, C. opilio, C. tanneri, and C. angulatus) or Dungeness crab, king crab belongs to the family Lithodidae. Swimming crabs (Portunidae) represent another distinct group with different physical characteristics and culinary applications. This subcategory focuses solely on king crab, excluding any other crab species.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification into 1605.10.40.02 relies on confirming the product is indeed king crab and is preserved through freezing. The frozen state is a critical factor for this specific tariff line.
