Import Tips
• Include lab tests proving omega-3 (EPA/DHA) content and that it's not from liver sources
• Label as 'food grade' if for human consumption and comply with FDA import alerts on contaminants
• Avoid bulk packaging that might suggest industrial use, triggering different statistical reporting
