Import Tips
• Verify net specifications match statistical notes for gill netting to avoid reclassification; provide mesh size and yarn details in documentation
• Include fishing gear certification and origin declarations to comply with anti-dumping rules on certain gill nets
• Inspect for proper knot construction (double/triple-knot) as single-knot nets may shift to other netting categories
