Import Tips
• Verify species identification with scientific names and ensure CITES compliance if applicable for wild-caught salmon
• Provide FDA prior notice and fish import documentation; maintain cold chain to avoid spoilage claims at customs
• Avoid misclassification as fillets by confirming whole fish structure; check for Section 609 shrimp-related restrictions if co-mingled
