Import Tips
• Test for heavy metals/antibiotics common in Asian crawfish; FDA detention frequent without clean certificates
• Declare peel/deveined status accurately; misdeclaration as whole can trigger audits
• Avoid bulk packing confusion with pellets (chapter note defines agglomerated products differently)
