Chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta), widely traded under the name 'keta salmon' in commercial channels, occupies a value-tier below sockeye and chinook and is heavily used in processed seafood, canned product, and food-manufacturing applications. Frozen whole or dressed chum under code 0303120022 excludes fillets, livers, and roes. Japan is a major market for chum roe (ikura), making the exclusion of roes from this code commercially significant — roe is classified separately and commands distinct pricing.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Chum salmon is commercially marketed as 'keta salmon' in many trade channels to avoid the negative connotation of 'dog salmon.' For HTS classification, the scientific name Oncorhynchus keta governs, not the commercial trade name. Importers should ensure the species is correctly identified on documentation to support classification under 0303120022.
Whole or dressed chum salmon and salmon roe are classified under different HTS provisions. If a shipment contains both, each component must be separately declared and classified. Mixed-presentation shipments can complicate entry; a licensed customs broker should be consulted to ensure proper line-item separation and valuation.
