Import Tips
• Verify Section 609 compliance with proof of farmed origin (e.g
• farm certification) to avoid wild-caught restrictions
• Provide accurate count size documentation from supplier; mismatches lead to reclassification or penalties
• Ensure cold chain integrity with temperature logs; thawed shipments may be rejected or duties adjusted
