Import Tips
• Maintain cold chain documentation (≤4°C) to prove 'fresh/chilled' status and avoid frozen classification
• Declare exact processing (scaled, heads on) on commercial invoice to match subheading description precisely
• Be cautious of container weight miscalculation including packaging, which could push over 6.8kg threshold
