Import Tips
• Provide detailed coating composition (e.g
• wheat flour, water) to distinguish from simple frozen fish under Chapter 3
• Comply with US seafood import monitoring to trace pollock origins, preventing illegal fishing penalties
• Label net weight of fish content accurately; mislabeling can lead to reclassification or duties
