Fresh or Chilled Atlantic Salmon and Danube Salmon

Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) is one of the most commercially significant farmed fish in global trade, and the US tariff schedule reflects this by separating farmed Atlantic salmon (0302140003) from wild-caught (0302140004) and the rare Danube salmon (0302140062) at the 10-digit level. Canada leads US supply, with the Faroe Islands and Norway also major sources — the latter two representing some of the world's largest open-net pen aquaculture operations. Fresh Atlantic salmon is subject to FDA food-safety oversight, and importers should note that the Faroe Islands' status outside the EU means its product does not carry EU certification, requiring independent verification of establishment approvals. Consult a licensed customs broker or FDA for current admissibility requirements.
