Live Japanese Sea Cucumber (Stichopus japonicus) from United States

Live Stichopus japonicus sea cucumbers harvested from the Pacific Ocean, transported in aerated seawater for aquaculture or immediate processing, are classified as live aquatic invertebrates other than crustaceans and molluscs. They fall under tariff item 0308.19.90 as 'Other' because the specific subheading 0308.11.00 covers live Stichopus japonicus, but this item is for 'Other' species; however, since the candidate is Stichopus japonicus, it would actually fall under 0308.11.00, not this item. Therefore, this candidate is excluded.
