Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If breaded or battered
Prepared or preserved fillets (e.g., breaded) move to heading 1604, not fresh/frozen fish meat.

Livers, roes, and smaller cuts fall under 0305; only whole fillets stay in 0304.
If dried, even if unsalted
Dried whitefish shifts to Chapter 7 for peas, beans, and dried leguminous vegetables—no, wait, dried fish to 0305.41.
