Import Tips
• Verify fish species identification via scientific name (Theragra chalcogramma) and obtain catch certificates to comply with HTS Gadidae classification
• Maintain cold chain with temperature logs below 4°C; provide health certificates confirming fresh/chilled status to avoid reclassification as frozen
• Check for Section 609 restrictions if sourced from regions with shrimp bycatch risks, even for finfish
