Canadian haddock landings are subject to seasonal quota management under DFO regulations, which can tighten supply in certain months. Norwegian supply is also quota-constrained under North Sea management agreements. Importers sourcing fresh product should plan procurement around these cycles to avoid gaps.
Heading 030252 covers only whole, gutted, or dressed haddock — not fillets. Fresh haddock fillets are classified under a separate HTS heading (Chapter 03, fish fillets). Correct classification depends on whether the fish has been filleted prior to export.
