U.S. imports of frozen cold-water shrimps and prawns (pandalus spp., crangon crangon) (HS 030616) totaled $3.4M in April 2026, traded with 12 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataClassified specifically to the genera Pandalus and Crangon crangon, these cold-water shrimps are distinct from tropical farmed species and are widely traded in both shell-on and peeled forms for foodservice and retail markets. The US tariff schedule breaks shell-on product into nine count-per-kilogram size brackets — from under 33/kg through over 154/kg — plus a separate peeled line (0306160040), making accurate size-grading at packing critical for correct classification. Ecuador leads US import supply, with Canada a significant secondary source reflecting North Atlantic wild-catch volumes. All shipments require FDA prior notice and are subject to admissibility review at entry.

The schedule uses count-per-kilogram brackets (e.g., 0306160003 for under 33/kg, up to 0306160027 for over 154/kg) plus a separate peeled line. Misclassifying the count bracket is a common entry error; importers should verify the packer's certified count range against the statistical note requirements before filing.
FDA oversees admissibility of imported seafood under its seafood HACCP program. Importers must submit FDA prior notice before arrival, and shipments may be detained for examination or sampling if the foreign facility or product has a compliance history. Working with a licensed customs broker and an FDA-registered importer of record is strongly recommended.
