U.S. imports of stromboid conchs, dried, salted, in brine, or otherwise preserved (HS 030788) totaled $0 in April 2026, traded with 1 country.
Last updated: April 2026 dataPreserved stromboid conchs — dried, salted, in brine, or otherwise processed outside the live/fresh/chilled/frozen categories — are classified under 0307880000. Nicaragua and Vietnam are the recorded leading suppliers for this heading, an unusual pairing that reflects both Caribbean wild-harvest supply chains and Asian processing of conch products. Queen conch's CITES Appendix II listing extends to all commercial trade forms, so preserved conch shipments still require valid CITES export permits from the source country. FDA admissibility review applies, and importers should verify that source-country export quotas have not been exhausted before shipment.

Heading 030784 (0307840000) covers frozen stromboid conchs specifically, while 030788 (0307880000) captures all other preservation states not covered by the live/fresh/chilled or frozen headings — including dried, salted, in-brine, and similar processed forms. Importers should confirm the exact preservation method with their supplier to ensure correct heading assignment.
CITES Appendix II obligations apply to all commercial trade in queen conch (Lobatus gigas) regardless of the product's preservation state. A valid CITES export permit from the source country's Management Authority is required for dried, salted, and brined presentations just as for live or frozen product. Consult a licensed customs broker experienced in CITES-regulated seafood for current documentation requirements.
