Import Tips
• Submit eFIS prior notice to FDA with lot-level traceability; test for contaminants common in lake fish like mercury
• Label with country of origin and 'Product of Freshwater'; pitfall is confusing with anadromous species leading to wrong hierarchy
• Use insulated boxes with gel packs for transport; exceeding chill temp risks reclassification as frozen
