Importers of Freshwater Fish, Frozen (Whole or Dressed, Excluding Fillets, Livers & Roes, NESOI) paid $306K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 11.37% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule. Freshwater Fish, Frozen (Whole or Dressed, Excluding Fillets, Livers & Roes, NESOI) imports of $2.7M in August 2026 ran 44% above the year-to-date monthly average of $1.9M.
Last updated: August 2026 dataServing as the catch-all for frozen freshwater fish not enumerated elsewhere in the schedule, 0303890043 captures a wide range of species — from carp and catfish variants to lesser-traded regional species — presented in whole or dressed frozen form. The 'NESOI' (not elsewhere specified or included) designation means classification here is appropriate only after confirming the species does not belong in a more specific line such as those for tilapia, perch, pike, or whitefish. Correct species identification is therefore the central classification challenge for this line. FDA admissibility review and seafood import monitoring program requirements apply to all covered shipments.

The importer should first identify the species by scientific name and check whether it is enumerated in a more specific 10-digit line — such as those for tilapia (non-Oreochromis), pike, pickerel, perch, pike perch, or freshwater whitefish. Only if no specific line applies does the product fall into the NESOI basket at 0303890043. A licensed customs broker or binding ruling from CBP can resolve ambiguous cases.
Frozen whole or dressed carp not otherwise specified in a dedicated HTS line would generally fall under 0303890043, provided it is not in fillet form and livers and roes are excluded. However, importers should confirm there is no more specific provision applicable to the carp species in question, as the HTS schedule is periodically updated to add species-specific lines.
