Import Tips
• Include CITES permits if applicable for certain sea urchin species and detailed harvest location for traceability
• Label clearly as 'fresh/chilled roe' to prevent confusion with smoked or brined products under other subheadings
• Test for contaminants per FDA seafood HACCP; improper chilling leads to spoilage claims at entry
