Import Tips & Compliance

Document wild-caught origin and comply with Section 609 anti-forced labor provisions mandatory for all shrimp

Use calibrated scales for headless weight verification; size discrepancies lead to CBP reclassification

Include commercial invoice specifying 'shell-on, frozen, 41-50 count' to avoid processing duty errors
