Import Tips

Use scientific nomenclature on invoices and labels to confirm cusk species and avoid reclassification to generic 0303.89

Ensure blast-frozen within hours of catch; inspect for histamine levels per FDA guidelines during customs

For bulk imports, segregate from shrimp to prevent section 609 cross-contamination issues noted in Chapter 3
