Import Tips & Compliance
• Obtain origin country certification confirming polyamide composition and salmon-specific design to prevent duty disputes
• Measure stretch mesh size under tension per US Customs guidelines; static size alone insufficient for classification
• Avoid bundling with floats/weights as 'made up fishing nets' (5608.19.20) which carries higher duties
