Import Tips
• Label with skin-on status and provide lab tests for histamine levels, as chilled cod is prone to scombroid risk
• Use BIS-approved temperature recorders for transit; exceeding chill temps risks shift to frozen classification
• Include commercial invoice detailing fillet thickness and skin presence for accurate valuation
