Import Tips

• Verify fish species via scientific name (Pangasius spp.) and obtain certificates of origin from suppliers to confirm HTS 0302.72.50 applicability

• Ensure proper temperature logs for chilled fish (below 4°C) and comply with FDA seafood HACCP regulations to prevent spoilage claims at entry

• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as fillets (HTS 0304); whole fish must retain head, tail, and bones for this code
