Import Tips

• Label products clearly with country of origin and species name to prevent reclassification; yellow perch often scrutinized for U.S. market preferences

• Include lot traceability and temperature logs in documentation to demonstrate compliance with FDA prior notice for chilled seafood imports

• Avoid common pitfall of partial freezing during transit, which could shift classification to frozen under 0304.61; test core temperatures upon arrival
