Import Tips
• Obtain CITES documentation if the species is protected, as some rays require export permits beyond standard HTS compliance
• Label with scientific name and country of origin to meet US Customs fish species verification requirements
• Avoid common pitfalls like insufficient ice glazing documentation, which can lead to duty reassessment if deemed not properly frozen
