Import Tips

• Maintain cold chain integrity with temperature logs to meet FDA frozen fish import requirements

• Label with scientific name (Salmo salar) and country of origin to prevent customs holds

• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'fillets' which requires different HTS and higher scrutiny
