Import Tips
• Maintain cold chain documentation proving temperature below 4°C to qualify as 'fresh or chilled' and avoid reclassification as frozen
• Provide certificates of origin and health certifications; check for species-specific restrictions under USFDA seafood import rules
• Avoid common pitfalls like improper labeling of 'edible offal' which could lead to duty disputes or rejection at customs
