Last updated: April 2026 dataImported fish and shellfish enter US commerce under FDA oversight, with all seafood processors — domestic and foreign — required to operate under HACCP-based controls. The Seafood Import Monitoring Program (SIMP) mandates harvest and chain-of-custody data for a priority list of species prone to IUU fishing or seafood fraud, including shrimp, tuna, and grouper. Admissibility determinations can be complex given the breadth of species, processing forms, and origin combinations involved; consulting a licensed customs broker or FDA-registered agent is advisable.

SIMP currently covers 13 priority species and species groups, including Atlantic cod, Pacific cod, blue crab, dolphinfish (mahi-mahi), grouper, red snapper, sea cucumber, shrimp, sharks, swordfish, tunas (albacore, bigeye, skipjack, yellowfin, bluefin), and abalone. Importers of these species must report harvest and landing data at entry.
Foreign processors exporting seafood to the US must operate under a HACCP plan that meets FDA's seafood HACCP regulation. US importers bear responsibility for verifying that their foreign suppliers comply, typically through supplier verification procedures, third-party audits, or affidavits of HACCP compliance.
