Dried cod — covering the species Gadus morhua, Gadus ogac, and Gadus macrocephalus in whole or split form rather than fillets — is one of the oldest preserved seafood commodities in international trade, with deep commercial roots in Atlantic and Mediterranean markets. The product is traded under names such as stockfish (unsalted, air-dried) and clipfish (salt-dried), and these distinctions can affect both classification and end-use buyer specifications. FDA oversight applies at US entry, and importers should verify that foreign establishments meet seafood HACCP requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the trade difference between stockfish and clipfish, and does it affect classification here?

Stockfish is cod dried without salt (typically air-dried on wooden racks), while clipfish is cod that has been salted and then dried. Both forms fall within this category as long as the product is not in fillet form. The distinction matters commercially — buyers in different markets specify one or the other — but both are captured under the same SITC heading.

Are there any species-specific documentation requirements for dried cod imports?

Yes. Because this heading is species-specific (Gadus morhua, Gadus ogac, Gadus macrocephalus), importers may need to provide species identification documentation to support the declared classification. FDA seafood HACCP compliance and facility registration are also required. Consult a licensed customs broker or FDA compliance specialist to confirm admissibility requirements for your specific shipment.
