This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the fillets are frozen
Freezing moves flatfish fillets to 0304.72, separating from fresh/chilled in the HTS structure.
If Prepared or preserved fish fillets go to Chapter 16, as heading 0304 covers only fresh, chilled, or frozen raw forms.
If from a different flatfish like Pacific halibut
Statistical suffixes distinguish species; 0304.43.0040 is for other flatfish, not specifically Greenland turbot.
