Import Tips

• Verify compliance with section 609 (16 U.S.C. 1537 note) prohibiting imports from vessels engaged in IUU fishing; obtain certification from suppliers

• Provide documentation proving product is live, fresh, or chilled with intact shells; statistical note 1 requires specific reporting

• Avoid misclassification as frozen (0306.17) which changes duty rates; maintain cold chain to preserve fresh status
