Import Tips
• Verify species with scientific names (e.g
• Oncorhynchus nerka) via supplier certificates to confirm Pacific salmon classification and avoid reclassification
• Ensure FDA prior notice and fish/seafood HACCP compliance; provide lot traceability for frozen fillets to prevent holds at entry
• Check for Section 232 or antidumping duties on salmon; common pitfall is mislabeling as Atlantic salmon, triggering different rates
