Import Tips
• Document dressing process to prove not filleted, as CBP rulings distinguish based on extent of preparation
• Register under FDA's FSMA for foreign supplier verification if processing occurs abroad
• Monitor for illegal fishing origins; IUU catches face detention under NOAA enforcement
