Import Tips
• Confirm that the product is not presented as fillets or other fish meat, which would shift classification to heading 03.04
• Keep records of the processing steps (scaling, head removal) to demonstrate it is not further prepared
• Ensure the packaging is labeled with the species and net weight for CBSA inspection
