Last updated: August 2026 dataClassified under a single 10-digit line, frozen edible fish offal not elsewhere specified encompasses a wide range of frozen fish byproducts — fins, heads, tails, swim bladders, and similar parts — intended for human consumption. The United Kingdom and China are prominent suppliers, with Japan, Canada, and Mexico also contributing to US import flows. FDA's seafood HACCP program requires prior notice and foreign-establishment approval for all such seafood entries. Importers should ensure commercial documentation clearly states the product type and intended human-consumption use to support both classification and FDA admissibility review.

This line covers frozen edible fish parts such as heads, tails, fins, and swim bladders that are not livers or roe and are intended for human consumption. Shark fins, fish maws (dried swim bladders in their frozen pre-dried state), and fish heads for soup stock are commercially common examples. The product must be edible — destined for human food use — to qualify under this heading rather than a non-edible byproduct classification.
The Shark Fin Sales Elimination Act and various state laws restrict the sale of shark fins within the US, but federal import admissibility is governed by NOAA and CBP, which require that shark fins be naturally attached to the carcass at the point of landing under the Shark Finning Prohibition Act. Importers of frozen shark fins should consult NOAA Fisheries and a licensed customs broker to confirm current admissibility requirements before shipment.
