Import Tips
• Verify species as Clupea harengus via supplier documentation to confirm herring classification and avoid misclassification as other fish
• Include commercial invoice detailing pickling process, fillet cut, and net weight; ensure FDA prior notice for seafood imports
• Watch for Section 232 tariffs on certain seafood; common pitfall is incorrect declaration of 'whole' vs 'fillets' leading to audits
