Chapter 03 classification notes

Catch documentation (IUU fishing certification, Catch Certificate for EU entry, SIMP for US species) is the main compliance burden, on top of sanitary / health certificates. CITES applies to sturgeon (caviar), seahorses, and various coral and shell species.

Frequent misclassification in this chapter

Prepared / preserved fish (tuna in oil, anchovies in brine) belong in Chapter 16, not 03. Smoked salmon: raw-smoked is 0305, hot-smoked preserved is 1604.

Classification certainty

The 6-digit level shown here is the internationally harmonised layer. Duty rates attach to national 8-10 digit tariff lines, which differ by country — use the duty calculator for lane estimates. For binding certainty, request a ruling from the destination customs authority.
