U.S. imports of frozen yellowfin tuna, excluding fillets, livers & roes (HS 030342) totaled $1.5M in April 2026, traded with 5 countries.
Yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) is a cornerstone of the global sashimi and canned tuna trade, and the US schedule provides three tariff lines under this heading: whole frozen fish (0303420020), a legacy line (0303420000), and a residual NESOI line (0303420060) for other non-fillet forms. Vietnam and Indonesia lead US supply, with Japan, Thailand, and Mexico also shipping meaningfully — a supplier mix that spans both artisanal tropical longline fleets and large-scale processing operations. FDA admissibility review applies at entry; consult a licensed customs broker or the relevant agency to confirm classification and any applicable trade-remedy exposure.

Heading 0303 covers whole or dressed fish (gutted, headed, or otherwise prepared but not filleted). Once yellowfin is cut into fillets or portions, it moves to heading 0304. The practical test is whether the product retains its skeletal structure; boneless loins and steaks generally belong in 0304 regardless of whether they are described as 'portions' on the invoice.
Both countries operate large-scale tuna longline fleets in the Indo-Pacific and have significant cold-storage and processing infrastructure that supports export of whole frozen fish. Vietnam in particular has invested heavily in seafood export capacity, and its proximity to productive yellowfin grounds in the Western and Central Pacific gives it a logistical advantage over more distant suppliers.
