Last updated: August 2026 dataYellowfin sole (Pleuronectes asper) is one of the most abundant flatfish in the eastern Bering Sea and supports a substantial commercial fishery, making this dedicated 10-digit line an important classification point for processors and traders dealing in frozen whole or dressed product. The species designation — Pleuronectes asper — must be confirmed by supplier documentation, as yellowfin sole is sometimes confused with other Pacific flatfish at the point of export. NOAA's Seafood Import Monitoring Program documentation requirements may apply alongside FDA prior notice and HACCP obligations. Consult a licensed customs broker or FDA compliance specialist for admissibility guidance.

NOAA's Seafood Import Monitoring Program requires importers of covered species to report harvest and chain-of-custody data at entry. Flatfish from certain fisheries are included in SIMP's scope. Importers should confirm whether their specific source fishery and species trigger SIMP reporting, and maintain harvest event records that can be submitted through ACE at the time of entry.
Using the species-specific line (0303390130) is required when the product is confirmed as Pleuronectes asper; entering it under an NESOI line would be a misclassification. Beyond compliance, the species-specific line provides cleaner trade data for quota monitoring, market analysis, and any future trade-remedy proceedings that might target a specific species.
