Frozen trout under code 0303140000 encompasses multiple species recognized by the HTS schedule: Salmo trutta (brown trout), Oncorhynchus mykiss (rainbow/steelhead trout), and several western North American species including cutthroat, golden, Gila, Apache, and Mexican golden trout. Rainbow trout (O. mykiss) dominates commercial aquaculture production globally and accounts for the vast majority of trade under this line. Importers should note that steelhead — the anadromous form of O. mykiss — classifies here in frozen whole form, and its origin and production method (farmed vs. wild) affect both labeling obligations and buyer specifications.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes. Steelhead is the anadromous (sea-run) form of Oncorhynchus mykiss, the same species as rainbow trout. In frozen whole or dressed form (excluding fillets, livers, and roes), both classify under 0303140000. However, USDA country-of-origin labeling rules and retail labeling standards may require disclosure of whether the product is wild-caught or farmed, which differs between steelhead and farmed rainbow trout.
The long description for 0303140000 lists Salmo trutta (brown trout) and six Oncorhynchus species: mykiss (rainbow/steelhead), clarki (cutthroat), aguabonita (golden trout), gilae (Gila trout), apache (Apache trout), and chrysogaster (Mexican golden trout). Commercially, Oncorhynchus mykiss from aquaculture operations dominates trade under this line; the other species have minimal import volumes.
