Glazed Frozen Skipjack Tuna Whole from Japan
Whole skipjack tuna individually glazed with 10-15% ice to prevent freezer burn, standard for long-distance shipments. The glaze is not a processing step that changes classification, so the product remains frozen skipjack tuna under the tariff item.

Import Tips
• Declare the net weight excluding the glaze, as the glaze is not part of the product weight for duty purposes
• Ensure the glaze does not exceed industry standards to avoid disputes
• Keep the fish whole to maintain classification
