Overview
This HTS category, 0302.13.00.54, specifically classifies Pacific salmon that are not farmed. This includes wild-caught coho (silver) salmon, identifiable by their scientific names within the *Oncorhynchus* genus, which are presented fresh or chilled. The focus here is on the origin and method of procurement, differentiating it from aquaculture operations.
This subcategory is distinct from its sibling, 0302.13.00.53, which covers farmed coho salmon. The critical differentiator is the absence of aquaculture for the fish classified under 0302.13.00.54. Therefore, importers must be able to provide documentation or evidence demonstrating the wild-caught status of the salmon to ensure correct classification.
As a leaf node, this category has no further subdivisions. The classification is finalized at this level, encompassing all fresh or chilled coho salmon that are not the product of aquaculture. Classification relies on verifying the species as *Oncorhynchus kisutch* (coho or silver salmon) and confirming it was not raised in a farmed environment.
