Import Tips
• Label containers clearly with net weight including brine/ice to ensure compliance with 6.8kg limit
• Obtain veterinary health certificates specifying 'fresh/chilled, scaled only' to differentiate from frozen or filleted products
• Watch for reclassification if any salting or dry-salting occurs, which would shift to subheading 0302.91
