Import Tips

• Verify species identification (e.g

• Gadus morhua for cod) with documentation to comply with FDA seafood labeling and HTS species-specific rules

• Ensure coating is pre-applied but uncooked; provide lab analysis if needed to confirm no cooking or oil content, avoiding misclassification

• Include country-of-origin certificates, as antidumping duties may apply to certain frozen fish products from specific origins
