Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide end-user letters from U.S. processors confirming mincing intent to support classification
• Comply with section 609 shrimp notes indirectly via seafood supply chain audits, though not shrimp
• Test for histamine levels in frozen blocks; high levels can lead to FDA rejection even if tariff-compliant
