U.S. exports of Atlantic and Pacific Halibut, Frozen (Whole, Not Fillets) (HS 0303310015) totaled $569K in August 2026, exported to 9 countries.
Last updated: August 2026 dataCovering both Hippoglossus hippoglossus and Hippoglossus stenolepis in a single tariff line, HTS 0303310015 applies when a shipment contains or cannot be segregated between Atlantic and Pacific halibut species. Accurate species-level documentation from the harvesting vessel or processor is the key compliance step, since misidentification between this line and the species-specific lines (0303310010 or 0303310020) is a common classification issue. FDA's seafood HACCP program governs entry, and given halibut's high per-unit value, weight and species verification at the port of entry is standard practice.

Use 0303310015 when a single shipment contains both Atlantic and Pacific halibut that are not segregated by species at the line level. If the shipment is entirely Pacific halibut with clear documentation, 0303310020 is the correct line; if entirely Atlantic halibut, use 0303310010. Mixing species without segregation defaults to the combined line. A licensed customs broker can help determine the appropriate classification based on your shipping documentation.
Acceptable documentation typically includes a catch certificate or vessel log identifying the species by scientific name, a processor's certificate of species identity, and country-of-origin documentation. For Canadian-origin halibut, IPHC landing records can serve as supporting evidence. FDA may also request HACCP records from the foreign processor as part of its seafood import oversight.
