Last updated: August 2026 dataRainbow trout and other trout species in fresh or chilled fillet form are consolidated under a single 10-digit line (0304420000), reflecting a less fragmented US tariff treatment than salmon. Chile leads supply by a wide margin, leveraging its large freshwater aquaculture sector, with Norway and Peru also contributing.

Yes. The single 10-digit line 0304420000 covers trout fillets broadly without species-level subdivision in the US tariff schedule. However, commercial invoices should still identify the species, as FDA admissibility review and country-of-origin labeling requirements may depend on accurate species identification.
Fresh trout fillets sold at retail are subject to COOL (Country of Origin Labeling) requirements under USDA AMS rules, which mandate disclosure of the country of origin and whether the fish is farm-raised or wild-caught. Importers and distributors should ensure that labeling documentation flows through the supply chain to the retail point of sale.
