Last updated: July 2026 dataAtlantic herring (Clupea harengus) and Pacific herring (C. pallasii) enter under this heading as whole or gutted fish, chilled but not frozen, excluding fillets, livers, and roes. Estonia leads US imports under this heading — a reflection of the Baltic Sea's productive herring fisheries and Estonia's processing infrastructure — with Canada and Norway also significant sources. Fresh herring is used in both food-service and bait markets, and the short shelf life of chilled product makes cold-chain logistics and rapid customs clearance critical. FDA prior notice is required for all seafood entries.

Estonia's Baltic fishing fleet and processing sector produce large volumes of Atlantic herring, and air-freight logistics make it commercially viable for premium fresh product. The Baltic herring fishery operates under EU quota management, and Estonian exporters have developed reliable cold-chain infrastructure that meets US FDA and SIMP requirements.
Perishable seafood qualifies for expedited release under CBP's Perishable Cargo procedures. Importers should file entry documentation in advance of vessel or aircraft arrival and coordinate with FDA on prior notice timing to minimize port dwell time, as delays of even 24–48 hours can render a fresh herring shipment commercially unsalable.
