Import Tips
• Provide commercial invoice detailing breading percentage (typically under 30%) to confirm 'breaded portion' status
• Watch for country-of-origin marking; pollock from Russia or China may face additional AD/CVD duties
• Test for moisture content; high levels could reclassify as 'minced' fish under 1604.19.21
