Import Tips
• Verify species identification via scientific name and provide catch certificates to confirm flatfish classification under Pleuronectidae
• Maintain cold chain documentation showing temperature logs below 4°C to qualify as 'fresh or chilled' rather than frozen
• Check for Section 609 compliance if any shrimp bycatch is involved in fishing operations
