Import Tips & Compliance
• Include lab analysis or supplier affidavits confirming Pandalus spp. to satisfy statistical reporting and prevent blending with other shrimp categories
• Maintain cold chain documentation proving frozen state at import to avoid reclassification to chilled or fresh under 0303
• Watch for FDA seafood HACCP requirements alongside CBP duties; non-compliance leads to holds on peeled shrimp shipments
