Import Tips
• Verify fish species via scientific name (Channa spp.) and provide certificates of origin to confirm exclusion from shrimp-related section 609 provisions
• Ensure product is truly fresh/chilled (not frozen) with proper temperature logs to avoid reclassification to Chapter 03 heading 0303
• Label clearly as whole/gutted fish excluding fillets to prevent misclassification under 0304
