Import Tips
• Test for antibiotics/veterinary residues per FDA import refusals; attach lab certificates
• Specify 'loin' cuts clearly on commercial invoice to match HTS description; avoid bulk packing pitfalls
• Register facility with FDA seafood HACCP; common issue is temperature excursions during ocean freight
