Import Tips
• Include lab tests for salinity levels and drying method to support classification as salted dried fish
• Ensure no smoking process is used, as smoked products shift to heading 0305.41-0305.59 but specified unsmoked here
• Label with country of origin and processing stage to comply with U.S. seafood import regulations
