Import Tips
• Confirm whole fish condition with no skinning or heading to prevent reclass to parts under 0302.91+
• Include aquaculture certification and residue testing results for antibiotics/pesticides per FDA import alerts
• Label clearly as 'fresh chilled freshwater fish' to distinguish from marine species in other 0302 subheadings
