Skinned hake fillets packed in frozen blocks exceeding 4.5 kg each and destined for mincing, grinding, or cutting into uniform pieces classify under HTS 0304741000 — a processing-grade presentation distinct from retail or foodservice fillets. This format is a primary input for surimi analogs, fish sticks, breaded portions, and other value-added seafood products manufactured in the US. The downstream-use condition embedded in the subheading description means that importers must be able to document the intended further processing; shipments diverted to retail sale as-is could face reclassification. Chile and Argentina are the leading source countries for this product form.

The subheading's eligibility is conditioned on the blocks being intended for mincing, grinding, or cutting into uniform pieces. If CBP determines the product was not used for that purpose, the entry could be reclassified into a different subheading, potentially with a different duty rate, and the importer may face a penalty for misclassification.
Yes — each frozen block must weigh more than 4.5 kg. CBP may verify this through the packing list, which should specify individual block weights. Importers should ensure that supplier packing documentation clearly states per-block weight to support the classification claim.
