Import Tips
• Provide commercial invoice specifying 'pink salmon' and net weight drained solids to avoid customs disputes
• Comply with USDA labeling for 'wild-caught' claims if applicable, and test for histamine levels per FDA guidelines
• Avoid common pitfall of undervaluation; use transaction value based on FOB prices for accurate duty calculation
