Import Tips
• Source from certified sustainable fisheries (e.g
• MSC-labeled) to ease customs review under Section 609 and avoid NGO challenges
• Document headless weight basis for count size explicitly, as shell-on imports require conversion verification
• Avoid bulk brine-glazed packs; excessive glaze (>5% weight) may trigger reclassification or moisture duty adjustments
