Import Tips

Provide commercial invoice specifying 'whole fresh/chilled cobia' to distinguish from fillets and ensure correct 0302 classification

Maintain cold chain documentation (below 4°C) to prove fresh/chilled status and avoid reclassification as frozen

Check CBP seafood import alerts for cobia origin countries to preempt inspections or holds
