Last updated: August 2026 dataIndonesia leads US supply of frozen tuna and skipjack (Katsuwonus pelamis) fillets and other meat under this heading, with Vietnam and Thailand also among the top sources — a supplier concentration that makes this heading sensitive to regional fishing quotas and cold-chain disruptions. The single US tariff line (0304870000) covers skipjack fillets and other frozen tuna meat, a critical raw material for the canned and pouched tuna processing industry. Importers should be aware that FDA oversees admissibility of seafood products, and HACCP documentation from the foreign processor is a standard entry requirement. Country-of-origin labeling (COOL) obligations apply at retail.

404 import shipments a month
Importers must provide a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and FDA Prior Notice. Because seafood is subject to FDA's mandatory HACCP regulations, the foreign processor must operate under a documented HACCP plan, and FDA may detain shipments from facilities with prior violations or from countries under import alerts.
The US collapses this HS6 heading into a single 10-digit line, 0304870000, which covers skipjack tuna fillets and other frozen tuna meat collectively. Importers should confirm the species and product form against this line, as other tuna preparations (e.g., loins or steaks) may classify elsewhere in Chapter 3.
