Import Tips
• Declare exact species (e.g
• Merluccius australis) on entry docs; generic 'whiting' may trigger CBP verification
• Confirm skinless status via processing certificates; skin-on shifts classification significantly
• Budget for potential cold chain inspections; maintain -18°C or below to preserve block integrity
