Frozen Skipjack Tuna Fillets & Other Tuna Meat

Frozen fillets and other meat of skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) and genus Thunnus tunas are classified under a single 10-digit line (0304870000), making this heading the primary entry point for frozen tuna loins and portions destined for canned tuna production, sashimi processing, and foodservice. Indonesia leads US supply under this heading, with Vietnam and Thailand also significant — all three are major tuna processing hubs whose product may be subject to Section 301 tariff considerations for Vietnamese and Chinese-processed goods. Importers should verify whether the product is a fillet or a loin, as processing method and form affect both classification and FDA labeling requirements. FDA prior notice is required; consult a licensed customs broker or FDA-registered importer of record before entry.
