Last updated: April 2026 dataDried, salted, or brined abalone not elsewhere specified — the non-frozen preserved forms — is classified under tariff line 0307870000, a residual category that captures shelf-stable abalone preparations outside the frozen heading. China is the leading US supplier, with Chile and Japan also prominent sources, reflecting strong demand from Asian-American culinary markets where dried abalone commands premium prices. As with other abalone trade, CITES species documentation and FDA seafood HACCP compliance are required at entry, and importers should verify that the specific Haliotis species is not subject to additional export restrictions from the country of origin.

Dried and salted abalone that is not frozen falls under 030787 (tariff line 0307870000), which covers abalone in dried, salted, or brine-preserved states outside the frozen category. If the product is frozen at any point in its preserved state, classification shifts to 030783. The condition at the time of importation — not the processing sequence — governs the correct heading.
China combines large-scale Haliotis aquaculture with established processing infrastructure for dried and salted abalone, a product with deep cultural significance in Chinese cuisine. Proximity to raw material and processing scale allow Chinese exporters to supply a wide range of grades and pack sizes, from premium whole dried abalone to lower-cost processed forms.
