Import Tips

• Label packages with scientific name (Clupea pallasii) and country of catch per FDA seafood labeling rules

• Verify frozen state upon entry; thawing can reclassify as fresh/chilled under 0303

• Use IQF (individually quick frozen) processing to meet quality standards and prevent spoilage claims
