Import Tips
• Use ISF filings early for frozen foods to avoid delays; maintain -18°C temperature logs for customs inspection
• Label with country of origin and 'keep frozen' warnings to comply with FSMA import rules
• Watch for common pitfall of starch content misrepresentation; test samples if challenged
