HSChapter 03
Skinned ocean perch fillets frozen in blocks exceeding 4.5 kg and intended for mincing, grinding, or uniform-piece cutting — but not of the Atlantic species covered by the adjacent line — are classified under 0304891030. The NESOI qualifier means this line captures Pacific and other non-Atlantic ocean perch species processed into industrial-format blocks. Correct classification hinges on both species origin (non-Atlantic) and the block's intended downstream processing use. FDA HACCP requirements govern admissibility, and species documentation should accompany each shipment to support the classification determination.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Line 0304891025 covers Atlantic ocean perch (rosefish, Sebastes marinus) specifically, while 0304891030 is the NESOI line for all other ocean perch species in the same skinned, over-4.5-kg block format intended for further processing. The species name and geographic origin on the commercial invoice are the primary classification determinants.
While CBP does not require a separate formal declaration, the tariff description's 'to be minced, ground or cut into pieces of uniform weights and dimensions' language means the intended use is part of the classification basis. Importers should document the downstream processing purpose in their commercial records and be prepared to provide that evidence if CBP requests verification.
