Last updated: April 2026 dataChilean sea bass (Dissostichus spp.) in frozen form, classified outside the bulk-container threshold, typically enters in retail or portion-controlled packs destined for premium foodservice and specialty retail channels. Chile is the leading source country for US imports of this species. Beyond FDA HACCP compliance, every shipment requires a valid CCAMLR Catch Documentation Scheme certificate; without it, CBP will not release the goods. Importers should also confirm NOAA SIMP filing obligations are met in ACE prior to arrival.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
No. The US requires a valid CCAMLR CDS certificate for all toothfish imports as a condition of entry. This document must accompany the shipment and demonstrate that the fish was legally harvested under an authorized quota. Shipments without proper CDS documentation are subject to refusal at the port of entry.
Chile holds significant CCAMLR-allocated quotas for Dissostichus eleginoides in the Southeast Pacific and has developed a well-established processing and export infrastructure for the species. Its geographic proximity to key toothfish fishing grounds and its compliance record with the CDS program make it the most consistent supplier to the US premium seafood market.
