About heading 2301

Flours, meals and pellets, of meat or meat offal, of fish or of crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, unfit for human consumption; greaves (cracklings)

Heading 2301 covers flours, meals and pellets made from meat, meat offal, fish, crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, plus greaves (cracklings), all unfit for human consumption. It splits into two subheadings: 2301.10 for meat and meat offal products and greaves, and 2301.20 for fish and other aquatic invertebrate products. The 2301.20 lines separate herring and pilchard meal from all other fish meal and pellets.
