Import Tips
• Use TED (Turtle Excluder Device) affidavits from suppliers to satisfy statistical note 1 entry requirements
• Ensure IQF processing doesn't add binders that could classify as pellets under chapter notes
• Declare net weight excluding glaze ice to prevent duty overpayment on non-product weight
