Import Tips
• Include DNA testing or species certificates for Gadus macrocephalus to distinguish from similar Gadidae like hake
• Label with country of origin and harvest date per US Customs; watch for anti-dumping duties on Pacific cod from certain origins
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'blocks' if IQF—ensure accurate description matches HTS for 'fillets'
