Last updated: April 2026 dataFrozen molluscs for human consumption not covered by more specific headings are classified across three tariff lines: a general frozen mollusc line (0307920100), frozen conch specifically (0307920130), and a residual frozen mollusc category (0307920190). Belize and Peru lead US supply, with St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Turks and Caicos Islands, and Mexico also contributing — a supplier mix that reflects both Caribbean conch fisheries and South American aquaculture. FDA seafood HACCP compliance is required for all lines, and frozen conch shipments involving queen conch remain subject to CITES Appendix II export-permit requirements regardless of the frozen state.

Line 0307920130 applies specifically to frozen conch — stromboid species such as queen conch — while 0307920190 covers all other frozen molluscs not classified elsewhere in the schedule. If the product is a mixed-species frozen pack containing conch alongside other molluscs, the principal component by value or weight typically governs classification, but a licensed customs broker should confirm the correct approach for mixed lots.
The Caribbean's shallow tropical waters are the natural habitat of queen conch, and several island territories maintain licensed commercial fisheries with CITES export quotas. Despite their small size, these territories can be meaningful suppliers of frozen conch because their harvest rights and processing capacity are specifically oriented toward export markets, including the US.
