Import Tips
• Prepare documentation proving no binders added, as pellets are defined separately in chapter notes
• Use FDA prior notice for shellfish and ensure HACCP plans cover histamine risks in thawed inspections
• Separate by exact count size in entry summary to hit the correct statistical suffix like .03
