Import Tips
• Verify compliance with Section 609 Public Law 101-162 requiring proof of no wild-caught shrimp from banned sources; provide accurate count size documentation from supplier affidavits
• Report exact headless weight counts per kg on entry; inspect for proper freezing chain to avoid reclassification as fresh/chilled
