Import Tips
• Verify poultry origin with USDA import permits and ensure compliance with FSIS labeling for species-specific content
• Provide certificates of analysis for additives; common pitfall is mislabeling as 'turkey ham' which may shift classification
• Check for country-specific restrictions on poultry imports due to disease outbreaks
