Last updated: August 2026 dataAtlantic and Pacific halibut frozen fillets that fall outside the industrial block-for-processing format are classified under HTS 0304835025, with Greenland halibut explicitly excluded and directed to its own line. This provision captures the premium retail and foodservice segment of the halibut fillet market, where individually quick-frozen portions and skin-on cuts are the dominant pack styles. Pacific halibut supply is regulated by annual IPHC quota allocations, which create predictable seasonal availability windows that importers and buyers must factor into procurement planning. FDA seafood HACCP requirements apply, and species-level documentation distinguishing true halibut from Greenland halibut is essential to support the classification.

Both lines cover frozen halibut fillets excluding Greenland halibut, and the distinction is subtle at the 10-digit level — 0304835005 and 0304835025 represent separate statistical breakouts within the same product category. Importers should confirm with their customs broker which line applies to their specific product format, as CBP may apply one or the other based on additional specification details.
The IPHC sets annual catch limits for Pacific halibut, and the commercial fishing season is concentrated in spring and summer. Frozen fillet supply peaks shortly after the season opens, and importers sourcing from Canada or other Pacific halibut fisheries should align purchase contracts with quota release timing to secure volume at competitive prices before the season's catch is committed.
