Import Tips

• Label with country of catch (e.g

• Norway, Iceland) and harvest date to comply with traceability rules

• Avoid reclassifying as 'frozen' if any ice glaze exceeds permitted levels; declare net weight accurately

• Check for EU export health certificates if transshipping through Europe; pitfall is missing catch certificates
