Decisions of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CROSS) and HMRC (Advance Tariff Rulings) on goods classified here. A ruling binds only its holder, but shows how the authorities classify similar goods. The descriptions are the authorities’ own, in English.
1. This chapter does not cover meat, meat offal, fish, crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, as well as insects, prepared or preserved by the processes specified in Chapter 2 or 3, Note 6 to Chapter 4 or in heading 0504.
2. Food preparations fall in this chapter provided that they contain more than 20 % by weight of sausage, meat, meat offal, blood, insects, fish or crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, or any combination thereof. In cases where the preparation contains two or more of the products mentioned above, it is classified in the heading of Chapter 16 corresponding to the component or components which predominate by weight. These provisions do not apply to the stuffed products of heading 1902 or to the preparations of heading 2103 or 2104.
For preparations containing liver, the provisions of the second sentence shall not apply in determining the subheadings within heading 1601 or 1602.
Subheading notes
1. For the purposes of subheading 160210, the expression ‘homogenised preparations’ means preparations of meat, meat offal, blood or insects, finely homogenised, put up for retail sale as food suitable for infants or young children or for dietetic purposes, in containers of a net weight content not exceeding 250 g. For the application of this definition, no account is to be taken of small quantities of any ingredients which may have been added to the preparation for seasoning, preservation or other purposes. These preparations may contain a small quantity of visible pieces of meat, meat offal or insects. This subheading takes precedence over all other subheadings of heading 1602.
2. The fish, crustaceans, molluscs and other aquatic invertebrates specified in the subheadings of heading 1604 or 1605 under their common names only, are of the same species as those mentioned in Chapter 3 under the same name.
Additional notes
1. For the purposes of subheadings 16023111, 16023211, 16023921, 16025010 and 16029061, the term ‘uncooked’ is to apply to products which have not been subjected to any heat treatment or which have been subjected to a heat treatment insufficient to ensure the coagulation of meat proteins in the whole of the product and which, therefore, in the case of subheadings 16025010 and 16029061, show traces of a pinkish liquid on the cut surface when the product is cut along a line passing through its thickest part.
2. For the purposes of subheadings 16024110, 16024210 and 16024911 to 16024915, the expression ‘cuts thereof’ applies only to prepared or preserved meat which, due to the size and the characteristics of the coherent muscle tissue, is identifiable as having been obtained from hams, shoulders, loins, or collars of domestic swine, as the case may be.
The European Commission's explanatory notes on how to classify goods in these CN codes. They are not legally binding but customs authorities follow them; they complement the HS Explanatory Notes of the World Customs Organization.
1602 · Other prepared or preserved meat, meat offal or blood
See additional note 6(a) to Chapter 2 providing for the classification of uncooked seasoned poultry under Chapter 16. Whether uncooked poultry meat is seasoned or not shall be determined by application of the methods for the sensory testing of uncooked seasoned poultry meat laid down in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1362/2013 (1).
(1) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1362/2013 of 11 December 2013 laying down the methods for the sensory testing of uncooked seasoned poultry for the purposes of its classification in the Combined Nomenclature (OJ L 343, 19.12.2013, p. 9).
1602 31 11 to 1602 39 85 · Of poultry of heading 0105
These subheadings include poultry and parts of poultry preserved after cooking.
These products include:
1. chicken in jelly;
2. halves or quarters of chicken in sauce and whole legs of turkey, goose or chicken, whether frozen or not;
3. poultry pâté (consisting essentially of poultrymeat to which veal, pig fat, truffles and spices have been added), whether or not frozen;
4. prepared dishes containing poultrymeat as the basic ingredient, together with other products such as vegetables, rice or products of the macaroni type as a supplement to the meat dish itself. Examples of dishes within this category are preparations known as ‘chicken with rice’ and ‘chicken with mushrooms’, as well as frozen prepared poultry dishes put up on a tray, holding separately the meat itself and the various other items.
In determining the percentage of poultrymeat or offal, the weight of any bones must be disregarded.
General notes to the chapter
PREPARATIONS OF MEAT, OF FISH OR OF CRUSTACEANS, MOLLUSCS OR OTHER AQUATIC INVERTEBRATES
General
For the classification of composite food preparations (including so-called ‘prepared meals’) consisting of, for example, sausage, meat, meat offal, fish or crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates or any combination thereof, together with vegetables, spaghetti, sauce, etc., see note 2 to this chapter and the HS General Explanatory Note to this chapter, penultimate paragraph.
The second sentence of the first paragraph of note 2 (classification in the heading corresponding to the component which predominates by weight) also applies to the determination of the subheadings. The foregoing does not apply, however, to preparations containing liver, of headings 1601 00 and 1602 (see paragraph 2 of the note).
Additional note 2
As a general rule, the cut from which a part is obtained is identifiable only where the part measures approximately 100 × 80 × 2 mm or more.
The expression ‘parts thereof’ applies solely to parts when the cut from which they were obtained (for example, hams) can be determined by positive means, rather than by a process of elimination.
