Import Tips
• Label precisely as 'toothfish fillets' with scientific name to match HTS; generic 'sea bass' risks reclassification
• Use insulated packaging with ice packs for chilled transport; FDA prior notice required 2-8 hours pre-arrival
• Check for MSC certification; importers must report harvest vessel info under Seafood Import Monitoring Program
