Import Tips
• Obtain veterinary health certificates confirming farmed status and absence of antibiotics common in aquaculture
• Use IQF (individually quick frozen) packing to preserve count size integrity during import inspection
• Avoid common pitfall of improper headless weight measurement leading to size miscount reclassification
