Import Tips

Provide documentation proving blocks are over 4.5 kg and destined for mincing/processing to qualify under 0304.83.10.30; otherwise, may shift to general frozen fillets

Ensure supplier certificates confirm turbot species (Scophthalmidae) and skinless condition to avoid reclassification as unskinned flatfish

Comply with FDA seafood HACCP and import alerts for contaminants; common pitfall is inadequate proof of processing intent leading to higher duties
