Frozen Breaded Butterfly Shrimp from United States
Frozen breaded butterfly shrimp are shrimp split in a butterfly cut, coated with a light breading, and frozen without airtight packaging. The breading and freezing preserve the product, making it a prepared crustacean under tariff item 1605.21.00, which applies to shrimp not in airtight containers.

Import Tips
• Confirm the breading is fully cooked or par-fried to meet preparation standards; raw breaded shrimp may be classified differently
• Ensure packaging is non-airtight (e.g
• poly bags without vacuum sealing)
• Provide a detailed product description, including the butterfly cut and breading composition, to the CBSA for smooth clearance
