Last updated: April 2026 dataDried scallops — known in Chinese culinary tradition as conpoy — are a high-value specialty ingredient used in soups, sauces, and braised dishes, with Japan and Canada the leading suppliers to the US market. The single US tariff line (0307290100) captures all preserved scallop forms not covered by the live/fresh or frozen headings, including dried, salted, and brined product regardless of species. FDA seafood HACCP regulations apply, and importers should ensure that foreign processors are registered with FDA and that product labeling identifies the species by common or usual name. The premium pricing of dried scallops makes accurate net-weight and moisture-content declarations especially important for customs valuation purposes.

Conpoy is the Cantonese term for dried scallop adductor muscle, a premium ingredient in Chinese cuisine. It is classified under 0307290100 as a preserved scallop product not elsewhere specified. Because conpoy commands high per-unit values, customs may scrutinize declared values closely; importers should retain supplier invoices and market-price references to support valuation.
Dried scallops from Canada may benefit from USMCA treatment if all origin requirements are met. Japanese-origin dried scallops are not currently covered by a US free-trade agreement, so standard MFN duties apply. Neither origin is currently subject to antidumping or countervailing duty orders specifically targeting dried scallops, but importers should verify current CBP guidance before entry.
