Import Tips
• Verify species identification with scientific name on documentation to confirm 'other' category exclusion from tuna, etc
• Ensure containers weigh over 6.8 kg with contents; provide gross weight certificates to avoid reclassification to retail codes
• Comply with FDA seafood HACCP and country-of-origin labeling; test for antibiotics common in Asian-sourced pollock
