Greenland halibut (*Reinhardtius hippoglossoides*), also marketed as Greenland turbot, occupies a distinct commercial niche from true halibut — it is a deep-water species with higher fat content and softer flesh, often used in smoked and value-added preparations. Classified under 0302210090 when shipped fresh or chilled in whole or dressed form, it is traded separately from Atlantic and Pacific halibut at the 10-digit level. Supply originates largely from the North Atlantic and Arctic fisheries, with Greenland and Iceland among the key harvesting regions. FDA HACCP compliance governs entry, and importers should ensure species labeling aligns with FDA's seafood list to avoid misbranding exposure.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
No. Greenland halibut (*Reinhardtius hippoglossoides*) is a separate species from Atlantic halibut (*Hippoglossus hippoglossus*) and Pacific halibut (*Hippoglossus stenolepis*). FDA's acceptable market name for this species is 'Greenland Turbot' or 'Greenland Halibut,' and using an incorrect market name on retail or foodservice labels can constitute misbranding under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
Greenland halibut has significantly higher fat content and softer texture than Atlantic or Pacific halibut, making it better suited for smoking and certain processed preparations. Its deep-water habitat also means it is harvested year-round in some regions, offering more consistent fresh supply than the seasonally constrained Pacific halibut fishery.
