Import Tips
• Label salt content accurately and test for compliance with FDA salinity standards for preserved fish products
• Include lab analysis confirming no binders or agglomeration to prevent misclassification as pellets
• Ensure packaging prevents leakage, as excessive brine could trigger re-inspection for brined subheadings
