Import Tips

• Provide documentation from research institution or fishery agency confirming use exclusively for fish sampling, not commercial fishing

• Include technical specifications showing monofilament construction and sampling mesh sizes to distinguish from commercial gear

• Avoid common pitfall of insufficient end-use certification which can lead to reclassification under commercial net headings
