Import Tips
• Verify catch origin with documentation to comply with U.S. seafood import regulations and avoid Section 609 violations if applicable
• Maintain cold chain with temperature logs below 4°C for 'fresh or chilled' status; exceeding this risks reclassification as frozen
• Include species certification from NOAA or equivalent to confirm Atlantic ocean perch identity
