Last updated: August 2026 dataCovering both Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) and Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii) at the 10-digit level, 0303510000 is the single US tariff line for frozen whole herring. Canada dominates supply, with European sources — Estonia, Norway, the Netherlands, and Latvia — providing Northeast Atlantic herring primarily for food and processing uses. NOAA SIMP traceability requirements apply, and importers should ensure that species and ocean-area data are clearly documented given that both Clupea species share the same tariff line.

Although both species classify under 0303510000, NOAA SIMP requires species-level identification in harvest documentation. Commercial invoices and catch records should specify the scientific name (Clupea harengus or Clupea pallasii) and the ocean area of harvest, as this information is needed for SIMP compliance even when it does not affect the tariff classification.
Canada is a USMCA partner, and frozen herring of Canadian origin that meets USMCA rules of origin may qualify for preferential duty treatment under that agreement. Importers should confirm origin qualification with their customs broker and ensure that a valid USMCA certification of origin is on file.
