Import Tips
• Label packages clearly with species (e.g
• queen conch) and processing details to avoid misclassification as a different mollusc
• Maintain cold chain documentation to prove the product remained frozen during transit, preventing reclassification as chilled
• Be aware of country-of-origin rules, as conch from certain regions may face additional trade restrictions
