Import Tips
• Verify the fish is truly fresh or chilled (below 0°C but not frozen) with temperature logs to avoid reclassification to Chapter 03 frozen fish headings
• Obtain health certificates confirming no disease and compliance with FDA seafood HACCP requirements
• Declare exact species as Salmo salar; misidentification can lead to penalties under statistical notes for shrimp but analogous for finfish
