U.S. imports of fresh or chilled seabream — excluding livers, roes, fillets & other fish meat (nesoi) (HS 0302855000) totaled $1.5M in June 2026, traded with 11 countries.
Importers of Fresh or Chilled Seabream — Excluding Livers, Roes, Fillets & Other Fish Meat (NESOI) paid $150K in duties in June 2026 — an effective duty rate of 10% on $1.5M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
A residual 'not elsewhere specified or included' line, this code captures fresh or chilled seabream presentations that do not meet the scaled/container-weight criteria of the more specific Sparidae lines and are not fillets or fish meat classifiable under heading 0304. In practice it covers whole, gutted, or headed seabream that falls outside the other enumerated conditions — a classification that requires careful review of the fish's processing state and packing format. FDA seafood HACCP requirements and prior notice obligations apply at entry. Importers should document the exact processing step (e.g., gutted but not scaled, or head-on) to defend the NESOI classification against a more specific provision.

Code 0302855000 applies when the seabream does not meet the specific conditions of 0302851100 — for example, if the fish is unscaled, or if the immediate container weight exceeds 6.8 kg. It is the catch-all line for Sparidae presentations not covered by the more specific provisions.
No Section 301, antidumping, or countervailing duty orders are broadly applied to fresh seabream as a category, but importers should verify current CBP and USTR guidance at the time of entry, as trade-remedy coverage can change. A licensed customs broker can confirm whether any applicable orders cover the specific origin country.
