Last updated: June 2026 data

HTS 0302735000 is the residual tariff line for fresh or chilled carp not covered by the primary carp provision, explicitly excluding not only fillets, livers, and roes but also other fish meat classifiable under heading 0304. The broader exclusion language — referencing heading 0304 fish meat — signals that this line is intended for whole or dressed carp presentations only, and any further-processed carp meat product would migrate to a different heading entirely. Carp imported under this line is subject to FDA Seafood HACCP importer verification and Prior Notice requirements. Accurate species and presentation documentation on commercial invoices is essential to support correct classification between this NESOI line and the primary carp provision.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the 'heading 0304' exclusion in 0302735000 mean in practical terms?

Heading 0304 covers fish fillets and other fish meat (whether or not minced). The exclusion in 0302735000 ensures that any carp product that has been further processed into fillet strips, minced meat, or similar forms is classified under heading 0304 rather than here. Only whole, headed-and-gutted, or similarly dressed carp — not further broken down into meat portions — belongs under this line.

Are there food-safety documentation requirements specific to fresh carp imports that differ from other fresh fish?

Fresh carp imports follow the same FDA Seafood HACCP framework as other fresh fish: importers must have HACCP-based supplier verification programs, file FDA Prior Notice before arrival, and be prepared for port-of-entry examination. There are no carp-specific import alert programs currently in place, but FDA may sample for aquaculture drug residues if the product originates from a farmed source with a prior compliance history.
