Import Tips

• Comply with CITES if applicable for African-sourced perch; include export permits from origin country

• Test for antibiotics common in aquaculture perch; non-compliance triggers FDA refusals

• Specify 'perch' in commercial invoices to align with HTS description and avoid reclassification
