Last updated: August 2026 dataThe residual flatfish fillet line at 0304430090 captures fresh or chilled fillets of any flatfish species not specifically enumerated — such as sole, turbot (other than Greenland turbot), dab, or brill — making correct species identification the central classification challenge. Importers relying on this line should document species clearly, since CBP may challenge entries where a named species (e.g., flounder or plaice) is present but not declared. FDA admissibility review applies, and species-specific labeling requirements under COOL and FDA seafood regulations add a compliance layer beyond tariff classification.

Species such as Dover sole, lemon sole, brill, common turbot (Scophthalmus maximus), dab, and witch flounder are among those that may fall under 0304430090 when no specific 10-digit provision covers them. The key test is whether the species is explicitly named in a more specific line; if not, the NESOI provision applies.
Commercial invoices should state the species' common and scientific names, the country of harvest, and the processing method. FDA Prior Notice is required for all imported food fish. A licensed customs broker or trade attorney familiar with seafood classification can help assess whether a more specific provision applies and reduce the risk of a CBP reclassification.
