Frequently asked questions
I freeze, can, and fillet fish and produce caviar — is that 10.20.09 or seaweed processing?
10.20.09 because you are working with fishery products: freezing, quick-freezing, drying, smoking, salting, and canning of fish, crustaceans, and molluscs, as well as fillets, fish roe, and caviar. Seaweed processing is a separate code, 10.20.01, even though it sits within the same class.
Do I process fish or just catch it? I own a fishing vessel and then can my catch.
These are two separate activities. Sea fishing is 03.11.00; the transformation and preservation of the catch is 10.20.09. If you do both, you declare the predominant activity as your primary code and the other as secondary.
I produce fish meal for animal feed from by-products — is that 10.20.09 or animal feed?
10.20.09 because the production of fish meal and fish solubles from fish and other aquatic animals, including for animal nutrition, falls within the processing of fishery products. The manufacture of complete compound feed for animals is a separate code, 10.91.00. Here you stop at basic fish meal.
