Import Tips
• Confirm the blocks contain whole fish with heads, bones, and entrails; if any fillets or meat pieces are present, they may be reclassified under heading 03.04
• Keep records of the species (Salmo trutta) and freezing process for CBSA verification
• Ensure the product is fit for human consumption, as unfit fish would fall under Chapter 5
