Import Tips
• Verify species identification and ensure labeling complies with FDA seafood regulations for prepared fish products
• Provide certificate of origin if from freely associated states to potentially qualify for duty-free entry under general note 10(c)
• Avoid misclassification as plain tuna fillets by confirming the product is formed into cakes, not just flaked
