Last updated: February 2025 dataBlue whiting (Micromesistius poutassou) is a Northeast Atlantic gadoid traded primarily as a whole or dressed fish for fishmeal, surimi, and direct human consumption markets. Under HTS 0302565000, the tariff line covers fresh or chilled blue whiting in non-fillet, non-roe, non-liver form — meaning headed-and-gutted or round presentations are the typical commercial formats. Cold-chain integrity is critical given the species' high moisture content and short shelf life. All imported fresh fish are subject to FDA entry review at the port of arrival.

This tariff line covers whole (round), headed-and-gutted, and similarly dressed blue whiting that are fresh or chilled. Fillets, livers, roes, and other fish meat classifiable under heading 0304 are explicitly excluded and would fall under separate HTS codes.
FDA has primary admissibility authority over imported fresh fish, including blue whiting. Shipments must be filed through the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) and may be subject to FDA examination or sampling for contaminants and labeling compliance. Consulting a licensed customs broker familiar with FDA seafood entry procedures is advisable given the complexity of admissibility review.
