Import Tips
• Use insulated containers with continuous temperature monitoring to maintain chill status and prevent duty reclassification
• Include commercial invoice specifying 'gutted only' to distinguish from headed/gutted under other subheadings
• Comply with US Customs seafood statistical notes, ensuring no offal inclusion to stay within fresh fish scope
