Import Tips
• Verify fish species identification via scientific name (Brosme brosme) on commercial invoices to avoid misclassification
• Maintain cold chain documentation proving temperature below 0°C but above freezing for 'chilled' status
• Obtain FDA prior notice and ensure no prohibited additives; watch for common pitfall of undeclared glazing weight
