Import Tips

Provide farm origin certificates from exporters to comply with US aquaculture import regulations

Label packages clearly with 'Pangasius hypophthalmus - Fresh Chilled' to avoid reclassification as generic catfish

Watch for common pitfall of partial filleting during cleaning, which could shift to 0304
