Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If specifically labeled as 'crabmeat' in paste form
Pure pasteurized crabmeat has a dedicated subheading, differing from frozen whole meat sections.
If dehydrated or freeze-dried crabmeat
Dried leguminous vegetables or similar don't apply; dehydrated seafood moves to Chapter 7 or 20 for preserved vegetables/fruits, but crab is Chapter 16 primarily.
If for industrial bulk without consumer packaging
Bulk uncooked frozen crab for further processing stays in Chapter 3, not as finished preserved meat.
