Import Tips

Provide end-use certification proving blocks are for mincing/processing, as required for this statistical suffix to avoid reclassification

Ensure CITES documentation if applicable for certain halibut stocks; verify species with NOAA for Section 609 compliance analogs

Conduct precise weight verification per block (>4.5kg) during customs inspection to prevent duty upgrades to retail fillet rates
