Import Tips
• Verify the fish is fresh or chilled (not frozen) with temperature logs to confirm classification under 0302, not 0303
• Obtain catch certificates and ensure compliance with FDA seafood HACCP and any country-specific restrictions
• Label accurately as 'skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis)' to prevent misclassification as other tuna species
