Last updated: July 2026 dataFarmed Atlantic salmon from Chile and Norway dominates US import volumes under this heading, while wild-caught Pacific species add seasonal complexity to sourcing decisions. The US schedule distinguishes Pacific salmon (0304810000), large skinned frozen blocks destined for further processing (0304811000), Atlantic Salmo salar fillets (0304815010), and other Salmonidae fillets (0304815090) — a species-level split that affects both duty treatment and country-of-origin labeling requirements. China appears as a significant supplier, often re-processing Norwegian or Chilean raw material before export. All shipments require FDA prior notice and are subject to USDA FSIS reinspection at approved ports of entry.
