Import Tips
• Include lab certification confirming Pandalus species and cold-water origin to prevent misclassification
• Declare exact count size based on headless weight samples, as statistical note 1 requires precise breakout
• Watch for IQF (individually quick frozen) packaging, which must still qualify as 'frozen' without binder addition
