Last updated: August 2026 dataIceland leads US supply of frozen fish roes and livers under this heading, followed by Canada, Peru, South Korea, and Japan — a supplier mix that reflects the global diversity of commercial fisheries producing these byproducts. The heading spans six distinct US tariff lines covering sturgeon roe (0303912000), herring roe (0303914020), salmon roe (0303914040), Alaskan pollock roe (0303914050), mullet roe (0303914060), and a residual line for other frozen fish livers and roes (0303914095). Correct species identification at entry is critical, as sturgeon roe in particular may be subject to CITES documentation requirements depending on the species of origin. FDA reviews all imported seafood entries under its seafood HACCP program, and importers should verify that foreign establishments appear on FDA's approved-facility lists.

Yes. Sturgeon species are listed under CITES Appendix II, so shipments of sturgeon roe — including frozen product classified under 0303912000 — typically require a valid CITES export permit from the country of origin and a corresponding US import permit. Importers should confirm documentation requirements with USFWS and a licensed customs broker before shipment.
The US breaks out five species-specific roe lines — sturgeon, herring, salmon, Alaskan pollock, and mullet — each with its own 10-digit HTS code, while a sixth residual line (0303914095) captures all other frozen fish livers and roes not elsewhere specified. Correct species identification in commercial documentation is essential to avoid misclassification between these lines.
