Import Tips
• Use IQF-specific packaging to maintain individual separation, documenting glazing weight (ice glaze) separately on invoices—over 15% glaze risks duty recalculation
• Confirm farm traceability chain meets USFDA seafood HACCP
• Avoid pitfall of batch-mixing sizes causing average count misdeclaration
