Import Tips
• Secure veterinary health certificates confirming no diseases; essential for aquaculture products
• Use precise HTS declaration to avoid blending with 0302.14 trout subheading; document gutted vs. whole state
• Monitor for misclassification as non-Salmonidae if hybrid strains; test moisture content to rule out drying
