Import Tips
• Declare intended end-use as mincing or uniform cutting with buyer contracts or processing plans to support classification
• Verify block weights via certified scale certificates to prevent reclassification to smaller portion tariffs
• Conduct species authentication testing if requested by CBP to confirm Greenland turbot identity
