Import Tips

• File FDA Prior Notice at least 2 hours before arrival with detailed lot info to expedite seafood entry

• Avoid common error of declaring as 'sprats' if not Sprattus sprattus; use lab-verified species docs

• Ensure no binders or agglomeration, as chapter notes define pellets separately, risking misclassification
