Import Tips
• Include veterinary health certificates confirming no pathogens; common issue is bacterial contamination flags
• Maintain cold chain below 4°C with calibrated logs to prove 'fresh/chilled' status over frozen
• Declare accurately to avoid blending with roe; mislabeling leads to duty disputes
