US Tariffs on Fish, Crustaceans, Mollusks from China — 35% (2026)

The United States imports substantial quantities of fish, crustaceans, mollusks from China, with approximately $575B in total bilateral trade.

The current tariff framework for fish, crustaceans, mollusks from China reflects the post-SCOTUS landscape: a 10% Section 122 tariff replaced the previously higher IEEPA rates after the Court's February 2026 ruling.

The Section 122 tariff is subject to a 150-day statutory time limit and is set to expire approximately July 24, 2026, unless Congress acts to extend or replace it. Importers should monitor legislative developments closely as this deadline approaches.

Fish, Crustaceans, Mollusks from China are also subject to Section 301 tariffs, which range from 25% to 100% depending on the specific product classification. Section 301 tariffs were not affected by the Supreme Court ruling and remain in full effect. Combined with the Section 122 base rate, importers may face effective rates of 35% or more.

Key products in HTS Chapter 3 imported from China include Fresh salmon, Frozen shrimp, Lobster, Tuna, Crab meat, and Oysters.
