Last updated: April 2026 dataFarmed rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) accounts for the bulk of trade under this heading, with Chile the leading supplier by a wide margin, reflecting its well-established cold-water aquaculture sector. Colombia has emerged as a growing source, and Canada and Norway also contribute. The single 10-digit line (0303140000) covers whole frozen trout excluding fillets, livers, and roes, so importers presenting dressed or headed-and-gutted fish must confirm the product still qualifies as a whole-fish presentation rather than a fillet. FDA prior notice and seafood HACCP compliance are required for all shipments.

A headed-and-gutted (H&G) or dressed trout generally remains classifiable as a whole fish under 0303140000, provided it has not been cut into fillet portions. The critical distinction is whether the flesh has been separated from the backbone into distinct fillet pieces. Importers uncertain about borderline presentations should seek a binding ruling from CBP before shipment.
Chile's Andean lake and river systems provide ideal cold, clean water conditions for rainbow trout aquaculture, and the country has invested heavily in processing infrastructure aligned with US import standards. Combined with competitive production costs and established cold-chain logistics to US ports, Chile has maintained a leading position in this category for many years.
