Import Tips
• Include commercial invoice detailing species, processing method, and net weight to prevent reclassification
• Ensure jars are truly airtight (vacuum-sealed) to qualify; leaks lead to Chapter 3 fresh product duties
• Watch for seasonal quotas or trade restrictions on snow crab from Alaska or foreign sources
