Heading 0302 covers fish presented whole, gutted, or dressed but still on the bone, in fresh or chilled form. Once the fish is filleted — flesh separated from the backbone — or reduced to boneless fish meat, it moves to heading 0304 regardless of temperature state. Fish livers and roes in fresh or chilled form are also included in 0302, not in 0304.

Fresh Atlantic salmon has historically been subject to antidumping duty orders from certain origins. The applicability of any active order depends on the specific country of origin and the tariff line; importers should check current CBP and Commerce Department order lists before importing, as antidumping measures can change with administrative reviews.
