Import Tips
• Verify fish is fresh or chilled (below 0°C core temp) with temperature logs to avoid reclassification as frozen under 0303
• Obtain health certificates confirming no contaminants and compliance with FDA seafood HACCP requirements
• Provide species-specific documentation for Coryphaena spp. to prevent misclassification as other fish
