Overview

This HTS category, 1605.10.40.25, specifically encompasses frozen swimming crabs (family Portunidae) of the genus *Callinectes*, notably including the blue crab (*C. sapidus*). These are prepared or preserved crab products that have undergone freezing to maintain their freshness and quality. The classification applies to the crabmeat itself, prepared in a manner suitable for consumption.

Distinguishing this subcategory from its sibling, 1605.10.40.30 (Other), is the precise identification of the crab species. While the sibling category covers frozen crabmeat from other types of crabs not specifically classified elsewhere, 1605.10.40.25 is dedicated to the frozen meat derived solely from swimming crabs of the *Callinectes* genus. This specificity is crucial for accurate tariff application.

As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level requires careful verification of the species of swimming crab from which the frozen crabmeat is derived, ensuring it falls within the *Callinectes* genus and is indeed a species of Portunidae.
