Import Tips
• Ensure commercial invoice details container type (airtight) and oil medium to avoid 1604.14.40 misclassification
• Comply with Section 609 if any shrimp bycatch noted in processing; declare country of catch
• Use ISF filing early for seafood; pitfall is undervaluing premium olive oil packs
