Import Tips
• Include bill of lading confirming frozen state upon import; thawed shipments risk reclassification or rejection
• Declare exact fish species to avoid blending with duty-free cod under 0304.61; misID leads to penalties
• Ensure immediate containers are food-grade to meet FDA import standards for bulk fish meat
