Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

Frozen cooked cold-water shrimp move to 0306.26, as cooking (steaming/boiling) before or during freezing changes the processing classification.
If subjected to additional cooking/processing beyond freezing
Prepared or preserved shrimp (beyond simple freezing) fall under Chapter 16, not Chapter 3, due to exceeding basic crustacean preservation.
If for other frozen shrimp species not qualifying as cold-water Pandalus
Species outside Pandalus spp./Crangon crangon (e.g., tropical shrimp) use different subheadings within 0306 frozen crustaceans.
