Last updated: April 2026 dataFrozen swordfish (Xiphias gladius) in forms other than fillets — such as steaks, loins, or dressed whole fish — packed in bulk containers exceeding 6.8 kg are classified under line 0304911000, distinguishing this heading from the fillet-specific heading 030484. Chile is the leading US supplier, with China and Ecuador also significant sources. As with swordfish fillets, ICCAT catch documentation and FDA mercury monitoring apply; importers should confirm that commercial invoices specify the product form (steak, loin, dressed) to support correct classification between this heading and the fillet heading. FDA prior notice is required; consult a licensed customs broker or FDA-registered importer of record.

Heading 030484 covers swordfish fillets specifically, while 030491 covers all other frozen swordfish forms — including steaks, loins, dressed fish, and headed-and-gutted product — packed in bulk containers greater than 6.8 kg. The product form as described on the commercial invoice and packing list is the determining factor; a CBP binding ruling is advisable when the cut type is ambiguous.
Chile's Pacific and South Atlantic coastlines provide access to productive swordfish grounds, and the country has developed significant longline fishing and cold-chain infrastructure oriented toward the US market. Chile's position as the leading supplier reflects both geographic proximity and established trade relationships, though Ecuador and China are also active suppliers under this heading.
