Import Tips
• Provide FDA prior notice and fish species declaration to comply with import alerts on flatfish contaminants
• Avoid common pitfall of partial filleting during cleaning, which reclassifies to 0304; ensure whole presentation
• Label with country of origin and harvest date to support traceability required for fresh seafood
