Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If headless (shell-on tail only)
Headless frozen cold-water shrimp move to 0306.17, as shell-on classification requires intact head and shell per hierarchy.
If not cold-water species like warm-water shrimp
Only Pandalus spp. and Crangon crangon qualify as cold-water; other shrimp species fall under different subheadings in 0306.2.
If cooked before or during freezing
Cooked shrimp, even frozen, shift to Chapter 16 prepared/preserved foods, not raw frozen crustaceans in Chapter 3.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify compliance with Section 609 Public Law 101-162 requiring proof of no wild-caught shrimp from banned sources; provide accurate count size documentation from supplier affidavits
• Report exact headless weight counts per kg on entry; inspect for proper freezing chain to avoid reclassification as fresh/chilled
