Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify smoking method (cold vs hot) and ensure no added brine to avoid reclassification under 0305.21 or 0305.31
• Provide lab certificates confirming species (Salmo salar) and absence of cooking to meet 'smoked fish' definition
• Comply with FDA seafood HACCP and labeling rules; common pitfall is misdeclaring moisture content leading to audits
