Import Tips
• Verify the product qualifies as a 'prepared meal' with multiple components beyond plain poultry; single-ingredient items shift to other subheadings
• Provide detailed ingredient lists and nutritional labeling compliant with FDA standards for preserved poultry products
• Ensure airtight container integrity certification to avoid reclassification as non-airtight preserved goods
