Import Tips
• Ensure EU/US-equivalent residue monitoring plan from supplier; Pangasius faced past bans due to veterinary drugs
• Use tamper-evident vacuum packaging; declare vacuum level to confirm no cooking occurred
• Cross-check invoice descriptions against bill of lading to prevent undervaluation claims
