Import Tips
• Include end-user affidavits confirming blocks will be processed into minced/ground product post-import
• Label shipments clearly as 'for industrial processing only' to prevent reclassification
• Monitor block weights during freezing; documentation must prove >4.5 kg to avoid duty shifts
