Import Tips

• Verify USDA FSIS prior approval for the foreign processing facility and ensure all labeling meets bilingual English/Spanish requirements for canned meats

• Provide certificates of origin and processing records to confirm boneless, cooked status and avoid misclassification as fresh or frozen pork

• Watch for common pitfalls like inadequate airtight seal documentation, which can trigger FDA re-inspection or duty reassessment
