Last updated: July 2026 dataA broad residual provision, this line captures fresh or chilled scaled fish packed in immediate containers of 6.8 kg or less that are not covered by any species-specific tariff line in the US schedule. Its NESOI character means it functions as a classification backstop for lesser-traded species or novel aquaculture products that lack their own enumerated line. Because the species range is wide, FDA admissibility review and seafood HACCP compliance apply across all entries, and accurate species identification on commercial documents is essential to confirm that no more specific provision applies. Importers dealing in specialty or emerging aquaculture species should work with a licensed customs broker to rule out a more specific classification before using this line.

The importer must first check whether the species is enumerated elsewhere in Chapter 03 of the HTS. If a specific line exists for that species — such as sablefish at 0302891120 — the specific provision takes precedence over this NESOI line. A binding ruling request to CBP is the most reliable way to confirm classification for a novel or ambiguous species.
The threshold covers the immediate container weighing with its contents — the combined weight of the fish and its direct packaging. Importers should ensure packing lists reflect this combined weight accurately, as misreporting can result in reclassification to a different tariff line.
