Clarias species — commonly known as walking catfish or African catfish — are farmed across Southeast Asia and sub-Saharan Africa and enter US trade under 0304620090. As Siluriformes, they are subject to USDA FSIS mandatory inspection, and the exporting establishment must hold FSIS approval. Clarias are less commonly traded in the US than Pangasius or Ictalurus, but their distinct texture and flavor profile give them a niche presence in ethnic food retail and specialty foodservice channels.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes. All Siluriformes fillets — including Clarias — are subject to USDA FSIS mandatory inspection under the same regulatory framework. The exporting country must have an equivalent food safety system recognized by FSIS, and the specific processing establishment must be on the approved list.
Commercial invoices and certificates of origin should state the scientific genus and species name. A species identification certificate from the exporting establishment or a recognized laboratory can support the classification if CBP or FSIS requests verification at entry.
