Import Tips
• Use ISF filing 24 hours prior with detailed HTS and value; bulk sole often scrutinized for undervaluation
• Provide fishing vessel logs or traceability docs for sustainability certifications like MSC
• Avoid common pitfall of mislabeling container weights, leading to 0304.91 reclassification and higher duties
