Import Tips
• Verify compliance with Section 609 of PL 101-162 requiring certification that krill is not harvested from banned sea turtle habitats
• Provide detailed commercial invoice specifying species as Euphausia superba and frozen state to avoid misclassification
• Check for CITES or IUCN restrictions on krill harvesting; obtain sustainability certifications from MSC to mitigate FDA scrutiny
