Salted Peruvian Anchoveta in Brine from Germany
Peruvian anchoveta (Engraulis ringens) salted and stored in brine drums for industrial use, not dried, smoked, or pelletized. HTS 0305.63.60.00 covers this as 'other' anchovies (Engraulis spp.) in salted/brine form excluding offal. Aligns with chapter notes on non-pellet preservation.

Import Tips
• Confirm species via scientific name on docs to avoid mix-up with non-Engraulis fish; provide proof of no binders added to prevent pellet misclassification; common issue is moisture content leading to 'dried' reclass
