Import Tips
• Provide fishery origin certificates to meet traceability rules under Section 609 for shrimp/prawn imports
• Ensure IQF packaging prevents thawing/re-freezing, as altered condition may shift to fresh/chilled categories
• Label net weight accurately excluding glaze ice, common pitfall leading to undervaluation disputes
