Approvals can change: establishments are added, suspended and removed, and these counts are a snapshot read on 23 October 2026. A listing covers fishery products in general — it does not name species or show that a plant handles frozen shrimp — and it does not replace other requirements such as health certificates or IUU catch certificates. FishMatch does not republish establishment names and does not imply any listed plant is a FishMatch supplier. Before contracting, check the live list and the exact approval number, and our team checks named plants during each request review.
What to verify before you buy
- Establishment eligibility for your destination and its approval number.
- Species (Penaeus vannamei or Penaeus monodon) and product form written into the contract.
- Whether the product is frozen raw (HS 03) or prepared (HS 16).
- Count, glaze and net weight basis on each offer.
Request a reviewed sourcing round
Free for buyers, for annual or seasonal programs of USD 250,000 or more. A person reviews every request before any producer is approached; buyers and suppliers stay confidential to each other and there is no direct contact. FishMatch Group coordinates sourcing and does not produce, certify, inspect or guarantee products.
Questions
- Is Indonesia's prepared shrimp counted in the frozen shrimp figure?
- No. Prepared shrimp is HS 160520, a separate heading with different documents and tariffs.
- Does an EU listing mean the plant ships to the US?
- No. Each destination has its own rules; the EU list only concerns exports to the EU.
