Import Tips
• Include cooking method details in entry docs to confirm in-shell status post-steaming/boiling
• Test for histamine levels per FDA guidelines, as frozen cooked crab is prone to scombrotoxin
• Declare total weight accurately, as moisture loss in freezing can lead to undervaluation disputes
