Import Tips & Compliance

• Include harvest location and sustainability certifications like MSC to facilitate CBP review

• Document oil as vegetable-based (soybean) to avoid animal oil subheadings; test for allergens

• Watch aggregate quantities if from freely associated states, though tuna-specific per US note
