Last updated: April 2026 dataAtlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus), Pacific halibut (H. stenolepis), and Greenland turbot (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) each have dedicated 10-digit lines under this heading, reflecting meaningful commercial and biological distinctions. Pacific halibut is managed under the International Pacific Halibut Commission quota system, which constrains seasonal availability and influences import timing. Canada is the dominant supplier, with Greenland and Denmark (as the administering nation for Greenlandic exports) also prominent — a North Atlantic concentration that makes this heading relatively insulated from Asian aquaculture dynamics but sensitive to quota cycles and cold-water stock assessments.

The International Pacific Halibut Commission sets annual catch limits for Pacific halibut in US and Canadian waters. Because harvest is seasonal and quota-constrained, frozen halibut availability peaks after the fishing season closes, and importers should plan procurement around IPHC opening dates and quota announcements to avoid supply gaps.
All three fall under HS 030331, but the US 10-digit schedule assigns Greenland turbot (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) to line 0303310030, while Atlantic halibut has its own line (0303310010) and Pacific halibut another (0303310020). Correct species identification on the commercial invoice is essential, as the species determines the applicable tariff line and any associated trade-remedy exposure.
