Last updated: July 2026 data

Atlantic salmon, Pacific salmon, trout, and related salmonids shipped fresh or chilled — rather than frozen — occupy a premium market tier prized by foodservice and retail buyers for texture and shelf life. All imports enter under USDA FSIS oversight, requiring origin from an approved foreign establishment and port-of-entry reinspection. Cold-chain integrity is especially critical for this heading because the narrow temperature window between fresh and spoiled compresses transit times and concentrates supply from geographically proximate or air-freight-capable origins.

Frequently Asked Questions

What labeling is required for fresh salmonid imports sold at retail?

Country-of-origin labeling (COOL) rules apply to fresh and chilled fish at retail. Labels must identify the country of harvest and, for farmed fish, whether the product is farm-raised or wild-caught. Importers and distributors should ensure documentation supports accurate COOL declarations throughout the supply chain.

How does the fresh versus frozen distinction affect duty treatment for salmonids?

Fresh/chilled and frozen salmonids are classified under separate SITC and HTS headings, and the applicable duty rates can differ. Importers should confirm the correct thermal-state classification at the time of entry, as misclassification between fresh/chilled and frozen can trigger liquidation adjustments or penalties.
