Import Tips
• Label clearly as 'gutted coalfish' with scientific name to distinguish from whole fish and avoid offal subheadings
• Obtain FDA prior notice for seafood imports and ensure HACCP plans address histamine risks in Gadidae species
• Check for EU or MSC sustainability certifications to mitigate risks of antidumping scrutiny on North Atlantic catches
