Appendix
Scope of the Orders
The scope of these orders includes certain
frozen warmwater shrimp and prawns
whether wild-caught (ocean harvested) or
farm-raised (produced by aquaculture), headon or head-off, shell-on or peeled, tail-on or
tail-off, deveined or not deveined, cooked or
raw, or otherwise processed in frozen form.
‘‘Tails’’ in this context means the tail fan,
which includes the telson and the uropods.
The frozen warmwater shrimp and prawn
products included in the scope, regardless of
definitions in the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), are
products which are processed from
warmwater shrimp and prawns through
freezing and which are sold in any count
size.
The products described above may be
processed from any species of warmwater
shrimp and prawns. Warmwater shrimp and
prawns are generally classified in, but are not
limited to, the Penaeidae family. Some
examples of the farmed and wild-caught
warmwater species include, but are not
limited to, whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus
vannemei), banana prawn (Penaeus
merguiensis), fleshy prawn (Penaeus
chinensis), giant river prawn
(Macrobrachium rosenbergii), giant tiger
prawn (Penaeus monodon), redspotted
shrimp (Penaeus brasiliensis), southern
brown shrimp (Penaeus subtilis), southern
pink shrimp (Penaeus notialis), southern
rough shrimp (Trachypenaeus curvirostris),
southern white shrimp (Penaeus schmitti),
blue shrimp (Penaeus stylirostris), western
white shrimp (Penaeus occidentalis), and
Indian white prawn (Penaeus indicus).
Frozen shrimp and prawns that are packed
with marinade, spices or sauce are included
in the scope. In addition, food preparations,
which are not ‘‘prepared meals,’’ that contain
more than 20 percent by weight of shrimp or
prawn are also included in the scope.
Excluded from the scope are: (1) breaded
shrimp and prawns (HTSUS subheading
1605.21.1020); (2) shrimp and prawns
generally classified in the Pandalidae family
and commonly referred to as coldwater
shrimp, in any state of processing; (3) fresh
shrimp and prawns whether shell-on or
peeled (HTSUS subheadings 0306.36.0020
and 0306.36.0040); (4) shrimp and prawns in
prepared meals (HTSUS subheadings
1605.21.0500 and 1605.29.0500); (5) dried
shrimp and prawns; (6) canned warmwater
shrimp and prawns (HTSUS subheading
1605.29.1040); and (7) certain battered
shrimp. Battered shrimp is a shrimp-based
product: (1) that is produced from fresh (or
thawed-from-frozen) and peeled shrimp; (2)
to which a ‘‘dusting’’ layer of rice or wheat
flour of at least 95 percent purity has been
applied; (3) with the entire surface of the
shrimp flesh thoroughly and evenly coated
with the flour; (4) with the non-shrimp
content of the end product constituting
between four and ten percent of the product’s
total weight after being dusted, but prior to
being frozen; and (5) that is subjected to
individually quick frozen (IQF) freezing
immediately after application of the dusting
layer. When dusted in accordance with the
definition of dusting above, the battered
shrimp product is also coated with a wet
viscous layer containing egg and/or milk, and
par-fried.
The products covered by the scope are
currently classified under the following
HTSUS subheadings: 0306.17.0004,
0306.17.0005, 0306.17.0007, 0306.17.0008,
0306.17.0010, 0306.17.0011, 0306.17.0013,
0306.17.0014, 0306.17.0016, 0306.17.0017,
0306.17.0019, 0306.17.0020, 0306.17.0022,
0306.17.0023, 0306.17.0025, 0306.17.0026,
0306.17.0028, 0306.17.0029, 0306.17.0041,
0306.17.0042, 1605.21.1030, and
1605.29.1010. These HTSUS subheadings are
provided for convenience and for customs
purposes only and are not dispositive, but
rather the written description of the scope is
dispositive.
