Import Tips
• Include lot traceability docs for species verification, as croaker can be confused with protected drum fish
• Avoid mixing fillet sizes that mimic retail cuts to prevent Customs reclass to smaller pack codes
• Test for heavy metals; croaker from Gulf sources often requires contaminant analysis
