Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If dried and unfit for human consumption
Dried crustaceans for animal feed classify as vegetables/legumes preparations, not edible seafood.
If count exceeds 154 per kg
Larger count (smaller shrimp) uses subsequent statistical breakout beyond 133-154/kg range.
If in brine rather than dry frozen
Brine-frozen or wet-frozen packing moves to salted/in brine heading 0304 per hierarchy.
