Import Tips
• Obtain species-specific certificates confirming Gadidae family (e.g
• Alaska pollock) to avoid reclassification as other fish
• Maintain cold chain documentation (below 4°C) proving 'fresh or chilled' status to prevent duty shift to frozen (0303)
• Avoid common pitfall of including fillets; separate heading 0304 products to prevent shipment rejection
