Import Tips
• Obtain AQIS-equivalent health certificates confirming no diseases; FDA prior notice required 2-8 hours pre-arrival
• Weigh containers precisely—over 6.8kg triggers .20 classification; common error in multi-pack labeling
• Test for contaminants like heavy metals in Asian-sourced carp; non-compliance leads to detention
