Import Tips
• Include farm origin proofs and section 609 compliance docs; farmed shrimp often face lower duties but higher verification
• Label packages clearly with count size and 'farmed' per statistical note 1 to avoid misclassification penalties
• Watch for moisture content to prevent disputes over added glaze reclassifying as 'in brine'
