Import Tips

• Obtain health certificates from exporting country confirming no banned substances; U.S

• CBP frequently inspects Pangasius for chloramphenicol

• Declare as 'frozen fillets of Pangasius spp.' to match HTS; vague descriptions like 'frozen fish' lead to exam holds

• Account for block-freezing vs IQF; both qualify but ensure uniform temperature logs for FDA entry
