Import Tips
• Verify species compliance with HTS definitions for tunas (e.g
• Thunnus spp.) and ensure labeling specifies 'tuna' per subheading notes
• Provide documentation confirming packing in airtight containers and oil medium; common pitfall is misclassifying as vegetable oil packs
• Check for free entry allowances under general note 10(c) if from freely associated states, but excess quantities duty at general rates
