The key distinction is preservation state: 030781 covers live, fresh, or chilled abalone, while 030783 applies to frozen product and also captures dried, salted, or brined abalone in the frozen state. If product is chilled but not frozen, it falls under 030781 regardless of any secondary preservation treatment.
Frozen abalone from China may be subject to Section 301 tariffs depending on the applicable tariff line and product specifics. Importers should confirm the current Section 301 status with a licensed customs broker before shipment, as these measures can change and the effective duty impact can be significant.
