Import Tips
• Verify species identification via scientific name (Gadus morhua) with documentation to confirm Gadidae family and exclude Pacific cod (0304.42)
• Ensure chain-of-custody records proving fresh/chilled status (temperature logs below 4°C) to prevent reclassification as frozen under 0304.74
• Comply with FDA seafood HACCP and Lacey Act declarations; common pitfall is inadequate country-of-origin labeling for wild-caught cod
