Import Tips
• Obtain species-specific certification from suppliers to confirm Loligo classification, as misidentification can lead to reclassification
• Maintain cold chain documentation (-18°C or below) throughout transit to avoid spoilage claims at CBP inspection
• Declare exact country of catch; certain origins may trigger additional FDA seafood HACCP or Section 609 checks
