Last updated: August 2026 dataA broad residual line within the restructured 0303.89 subheading, this code captures frozen whole or dressed fish not covered by any other named or species-specific line in the heading — and explicitly excludes not only fillets, livers, and roe but also other fish meat of heading 0304. Its NESOI status means it should be used only after exhausting all named species subheadings, and CBP may scrutinize entries where a more specific classification exists. FDA Prior Notice and admissibility review apply to all seafood imports regardless of species, and SIMP obligations may attach depending on the fish involved. Importers relying on this line should maintain robust species documentation to defend the classification if audited.

Both are residual NESOI lines, but they sit in different structural branches of heading 0303 reflecting the HTS schedule's organization. Importers should work with a licensed customs broker to determine which NESOI line applies to their specific product, as CBP's liquidation practice may treat the two lines differently depending on the species and its origin within the tariff schedule.
Importers should retain the commercial invoice with scientific and common species names, catch certificates or supplier affidavits confirming species identity, and a written classification rationale showing that no named species subheading within heading 0303 applies. These records are essential if CBP issues a CF-28 request for information or initiates a post-entry audit.
