Import Tips & Compliance

Verify quota eligibility with U.S

Customs before entry, as aggregate shipments cannot exceed 4.8% of prior year's U.S. consumption reported by National Marine Fisheries Service

Provide certificates confirming tuna species (e.g

skipjack, yellowfin) and origin not from U.S. insular possessions like American Samoa

Ensure labels specify 'not in oil' and net weight under 7kg per container to avoid reclassification
