Import Tips
• Obtain APHIS veterinary certificates confirming disease-free status for avian influenza and other pathogens
• Label clearly as 'fresh/chilled goose meat, whole' to avoid misclassification as frozen or cut
• Avoid common pitfall of partial evisceration leading to 'cut pieces' scrutiny by customs
