Import Tips
• Verify species identification as Trachurus spp. with scientific documentation to confirm HTS 0302.45 classification
• Ensure immediate containers weigh ≤6.8kg gross; provide weight certificates to prevent reclassification to bulk codes
• Maintain cold chain documentation showing 'fresh or chilled' status to avoid duties under frozen fish headings
