Section I · Live Animals & Animal Products · Chapter 03
Fish and crustaceans, molluscs and other aquatic invertebrates
About chapter 03
Chapter 3 covers fish, crustaceans, molluscs and other aquatic invertebrates, whether live, fresh, chilled, frozen, dried, salted or in brine. It is one of the largest HS chapters by code count because each species and presentation (whole, fillets, live) gets its own six-digit line.
Classification tip: Smoked, canned or otherwise cooked seafood preparations move out of chapter 3 and into chapter 16: only the raw or simply preserved product stays here.

Codes and descriptions follow the WCO six-digit Harmonized System nomenclature. National tariff schedules extend these to 8–13 digits and set the actual duty rate, so confirm the full code for your destination country with your customs broker before filing. To copy a code, hover a row and use the copy button; every code has 0301-style dot notation ready for your commercial invoice.
Chapter 03 FAQ
What does HS code chapter 03 cover?
Chapter 03 of the Harmonized System covers: fish and crustaceans, molluscs and other aquatic invertebrates. It belongs to section I (Live Animals & Animal Products) and contains 9 four-digit headings, 0301–0309.
How many HS codes are in chapter 03?
Chapter 03 contains 9 four-digit headings and 225 six-digit subheadings. Countries subdivide these further (8–13 digits) in their national tariff schedules, so the full national count is larger.
Is HS code 0301 the same in every country?
Yes. The six-digit level of every code in this chapter is harmonised by the World Customs Organization and identical in all member countries. Digits beyond the sixth (for example the US 10-digit HTS or the EU 8-digit CN) are national and set the actual duty rate.
How do I choose the right code within chapter 03?
Work from the four-digit heading down: pick the heading that best matches your product, then the six-digit subheading that matches its material, form or processing. If two codes seem to fit, customs rules (the General Rules of Interpretation) decide, and when in doubt, confirm with your customs broker before filing.
