Last updated: April 2026 dataMullet roe — a high-value specialty product used in Mediterranean and East Asian cuisine — receives its own dedicated line (0302914010) within this heading, separating it from the broader fish livers and roes categories (0302914090 and 0302915000). Norway and Japan are the leading suppliers, reflecting demand for premium roe products such as cod liver and salmon milt. Because these are perishable fish byproducts, cold-chain documentation and FDA prior notice are mandatory, and importers should verify that the exporting establishment holds FDA registration. Classification hinges on species and product type, so detailed commercial invoices specifying the exact organ and species are essential.

Mullet roe (0302914010) is singled out because it is a distinct, commercially significant specialty product — particularly prized in Taiwanese and Italian markets — that warrants its own statistical tracking. All other fresh or chilled fish livers and roes fall under the NESOI lines (0302914090 or 0302915000) depending on presentation.
Fresh fish livers, roes, and milt are FDA-regulated seafood products subject to prior notice requirements and seafood HACCP regulations. Shipments must originate from FDA-registered foreign facilities, and importers should be prepared for FDA examination at the port of entry given the perishable and specialty nature of these products. Consulting a licensed customs broker is advisable.
