About heading 0303

Fish, frozen, excluding fish fillets and other fish meat of heading 0304

The heading is split first by species group (salmon, tilapia and catfish, flat fish, tunas, herring and mackerel, cod and hake, other fish), then by species and, for some lines, by cut such as whole, head-on or steaks. A final group of lines covers edible fish offal such as livers, roes, milt, fins and maws.
