Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If intended for animal feed
Animal feed pellets or meals from aquatic invertebrates shift to Chapter 23, as chapter notes exclude human-fit products from 0305-0308.
If specifically of shrimp and prawn genus
Statistical suffixes differentiate genus-specific flours, but 'other' applies to non-specified crustaceans.
If dried and not frozen, resembling dried legumes
Dried, non-frozen forms may align with dried leguminous vegetables if processed similarly, but aquatic origin keeps it in Chapter 3.
