Import Tips

Label packages clearly with processing details (e.g

'gutted only') to support classification during customs review

Avoid common pitfall of over-salting that mimics drying; maintain moisture content above 50% for brine verification

Check for anti-dumping duties on haddock from specific countries like Norway or Canada
