Import Tips

• Verify block weights exceed 4.5 kg per unit and include processing intent declaration to avoid reclassification as retail fillets

• Provide documentation proving import for mincing/ground use, such as buyer contracts, to comply with specific subheading requirements

• Ensure FDA prior notice and comply with seafood HACCP; watch for section 609 if any shrimp contamination risks in processing
