Import Tips
• Use 'Pangasius spp.' in scientific naming on labels despite trade names like swai to align with HTS description
• Monitor for EU/US residue limits on antibiotics common in Asian Pangasius farming via FDA import refusals
• Separate shipments from channel catfish (Ictalurus spp.) to avoid blending under broader catfish subheadings
