Import Tips
• Provide slaughter and processing certificates; temperature logs mandatory for frozen state integrity
• Monitor USTR quotas for origins like Brazil; excess may face higher duties or rejection
• Label accurately as 'young fryer' to match HTS; age verification via growth records prevents disputes
