Last updated: August 2026 dataClassified specifically to Xiphias gladius, this 10-digit line covers frozen swordfish fillets and is one of the species subject to NOAA's Seafood Import Monitoring Program, requiring detailed harvest documentation filed through ACE. FDA's seafood HACCP regulation also applies, and importers should be aware that swordfish carries FDA methylmercury advisory guidance, which can affect commercial buyer specifications. Proper species identification on entry documents is straightforward given swordfish's distinctive morphology, but harvest-area and vessel documentation are the primary compliance focus.

Under NOAA's SIMP, importers must provide the vessel name and flag, fishing license or authorization, fishing area (FAO zone or EEZ), gear type, species, and product weight. This data is submitted through ACE and must be retained for two years.
FDA has issued methylmercury consumption advisories for swordfish, which primarily affect retail and foodservice buyer specifications rather than admissibility. Shipments are not refused on mercury grounds at entry, but commercial buyers — particularly those supplying schools or healthcare facilities — often impose their own procurement limits.
