Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'pre-cooked and frozen' with temperature logs to distinguish from raw frozen under Chapter 3
• Comply with USDA/NOAA import permits if applicable, and test for contaminants per FDA guidelines
• Watch for reclassification if breaded, as that may trigger other prepared food headings
