Import Tips

• Provide lab analysis confirming salt content over 10% to distinguish from lightly brined fresh roe

• Label clearly as 'salted roe' to prevent misclassification as caviar-style products under different subheadings

• Ensure country-of-origin labeling, as pollock from Russia may face additional sanctions or quotas
