Import Tips
• Supreme cuts need detailed invoices specifying trim level to justify value and prevent undervaluation claims
• Test for antibiotics common in Asian aquaculture; positive results trigger FDA detention
• Use modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) labels to confirm chilled status without preservatives
