Import Tips

• Verify species identification via scientific naming (Oncorhynchus keta) and obtain CITES documentation if required for endangered stocks

• Ensure chain of custody records from catch to freeze to comply with FDA seafood HACCP and avoid detention

• Label clearly as 'chum salmon' to match HTS description; mislabeling as sockeye can trigger reclassification
