Import Tips & Compliance

Include country-of-origin certification and chain-of-custody docs for Section 609 to prevent holds at ports like Boston or Seattle

Label packages clearly with count size and species; discrepancies lead to reclassification and penalties

Use IQF (individually quick frozen) processing to prevent clumping, ensuring eligibility as 'frozen' not thawed
